{"product_id":"2940044600928","title":"Close Encounters of the French Kind","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a book of cross-cultural mini-dramas, written by Arley Levno, Ph.D.,(professor emeritus, Towson University, Towson, MD) in which an American meets a French person, resulting in a cultural conflict or misunderstanding. The reader tries to determine the reason (A, B, or C) for the conflict, before the correct answer is given with a full explanation and resolution of the conflict. Virtually all of the mini-dramas were drawn from the author's 2 years teaching and studying in Paris, as well as his colleagues' and students'experiences. Arley levno's first book of cross-cultural mini-dramas,\"Rencontres culturelles\", published by the National Textbook Co.(1977, 1987), later acquired by McGraw-Hill (1987), was used extensively throughout the United States in colleges and high schools. This new book of all new mini-dramas is written entirely in English in order to reach a larger audience interested in contrasting cultural values, from which we can all gain invaluable new perspectives on life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arley Levno","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47109713166576,"sku":"2940044600928","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940044600928_p0.jpg?v=1763964087","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940044600928","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
