As the world gets smaller, hotter, and flatter, people from different cultures are colliding like never before. However, many modern conflicts stem from the same root cause: the tension between people using the independent, separate, and in-control side of their selves, versus people using the interdependent, connected, and adjusting side. We also show how people can nudge their cultures to call forth their best selves. By knowing when and how to use our different selves, we may not just survive, but thrive in the 21st century.

Audible Edition Voice Actor is Bad
Revisado: 06-28-17
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
The voice behind this narration has any number of fatal flaws. First, the voice narrator changes the authors words in a number of contexts from third to first person. She also rearranges the text and graphics putting in an explanation were she feels they could be read over. At various times in the later audio you can hear a phone ringing in the background. Likewise, the author sometimes seems out of breath or needs to take a drink. There is a noticeable difference in voice quality in some sections over others.
What could Hazel Rose Markus and Alana Conner have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Markus and Connor produced a well respected text used in classrooms at colleges, universities, and seminaries. They produced a well researched volume.
How could the performance have been better?
The voice author could read the text as it is written to avoid false impressions of who is speaking, the voice author could record smaller sections of text at a time for compilation, and the voice could be recorded without the phone ringing in the background.
Any additional comments?
A new voice recording is needed
