内容説明

From personal experience and a solid research base, the author demonstrates that people who work abroad are embarked on a modern-day version of the archetypal "hero's journey", with new lands to explore, miraculous feats to perform, and valued gifts to carry home. This book provides a powerful framework for understanding - and mastering - the predictable phases of this very personal adventure.
