Includes:: English.*” World Mapping Project”* is an extensive series of maps at varying scales, aiming to provide coverage of countries & regions worldwide using clear, well presented cartography with both topographic & tourist information. Some titles in this series have been published in Britain by Rough Guides with the same original cartography & are listed on our website only under that imprint. * Sample of cartography:* Some elements of the cartography e.g. minor roads & contours are printed relatively faintly compared with other information such as major roads. Although clearly legible on the map, the lower contrast of these details has made them less obvious on the reproduction of the cartography presented here.

India s population of 1.2 billion is as varied & colorful as the spice markets of Old Delhi. Each region, caste, & community has its own culture, reflecting unique histories shaped by conquest, creativity, & religion, expressed in distinct languages, social customs, art forms, & expectations of life. Despite enormous recent political & economic change, in many ways India remains the same a total sensory experience. The chaos & beauty of color & sound, the language shifts every ten miles, the household variations of spicy & sharp, sweet & sour, the insistent smells of everyday life lived very much in public, & the invasion of personal space will challenge the most experienced traveler. But it is in surrendering to your senses that you begin to embrace the essence of India & to understand its people. Indians live with paradox. Proud traditions & patriotism commingle with tensions & prejudices rooted in age-old rivalries. Ancient temples may be plastered with signs advertising the latest technologies. The rapid urbanization of the last century has given rise to burgeoning slums & an affluent middle class that was nonexistent a few decades ago. Steeped in tradition, exceptionally fatalistic, & intensely passionate about their culture, the Indians are an ingenious, adventurous, & creative people. Show interest in their country & most will respond with genuine warmth & friendship. But they also have indelible ties to family & community that form boundaries & determine decisions that may not always seem reasonable, or sometimes even ethical, to outsiders. ” Culture Smart! India” will make you aware of basic values & behavioral norms, show you how to navigate cultural differences & connect with real people, & offer invaluable insights into this great, endlessly fascinating l&.” ...
