THE HOW TO BE BRITISH COLLECTION
Book ID/图书代码： 06684515B80813
English Summary/英文概要： With a globalised mass culture standardising our food, our social customs and even our language, where can the overseas visitor find a truly British experience?
The answer lies in The How to be British Collection, which celebrates the traditional values of our reserved, polite, tea-drinking, pet-loving nation — values which have long made Britain ‘different’.
The How to be British Collection is a must for the overseas visitor trying to understand us, as much as for the Brit trying (not too seriously) to explain us to the world.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 随着全球化进程的日益加快, 西方社会的各种生活理念逐渐渗透到我们生活的方方面面中： 无论是饮食文化、 社会风俗甚至是我们的日常交际。那么，大家免不了要问这样一个问题： 对于海外游客来说， 他们可以去哪里体验真正的英伦文化呢？
其实，答案就在于这本妙不可言、精致小巧的《伦敦生活大集锦》里！！！在这本书中，作者把一个观念保守、彬彬有礼、具有悠久饮茶文化、喜爱宠物的国家一览无遗地呈现在读者眼前——长期以来，英国的传统价值观就是让其“与众不同”的根基。
对于那些一直想了解英伦文化的海外观光客和竭尽所能把英国文化推向世界的人们来说, 这本书就是他们的必需品！！！(Susie)
Awards/获奖情况：I bought this for a friend who was moving to Canada, and when I read it before, it’s absolutely fabulous! It’s entirely true, all of it, and the style it’s written in is funny, concise and underlines how good the British are at laughing at themselves.
