Very Conservative & Outdated info May 1, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this book because my husband and I were going on a business trip to Taiwan, April 2008. It's an inexpensive little book, a quick read, and was probably useful 10 or 15 years ago. We found the advice outdated - the business people we dealt with were much more casual in dress and manner than the book described. The advice not to wear red, white, or black clothing was ludicrous -- I saw 100's of Taiwanese wearing these colors, alone, or in combination. I don't know if there is a better book out there, but take any advice in this book with a very large grain of salt. We were very over dressed. The young people dress in same variety as Americans -- shorts on older people (like me - 40 something) are common - just not super short. Because of this book, I prepared for a conservative, formal country, and that's not what I found.

I wasn't aware that Taiwan had any sort of etiquette. Until I read this handy book of course.

I purchased this book based on reviewers' comments. I'm delighted with the book and will use it, in conjunction with National Geographic Traveler: Taiwan, to map out our itinerary. I would certainly recommend both books -- and a map of Taiwan -- to anyone considering a trip to that country.

This book was quite a handy reference manual while I was attending Ming Chuan Univeristy...quite a different culture than Austrailia!
