内容説明
We live in a remarkably diverse society and it's increasingly common to be invited to a wedding, funeral or other religious service of a friend, relative or colleague whose faith is different from our own.
What will happen?
What do I do? What do I wear? What do I say?
What should I avoid doing, wearing, saying?
Is it okay to use a video camera?
How long will it last? What are their basic beliefs?
Will there be a reception? Will there be food?
Should I bring a gift? When is it okay to leave?
These are just a few of the basic questions answered in HOW TO BE A PERFECT STRANGER. This easy-to-read guidebook, with an 'Everything You Need to Know Before You Go' checklist, helps the well-meaning guest to feel comfortable, participate to the fullest extent possible and avoid violating anyone's religious principles - while enriching their own spiritual understanding.
