Borrowed by my company.

The book was written by working mother, married with an American. Daily differences are humorously described. I personally have experienced such differences, so reading it, I imagined talking with the author, saying "exactly!". What I was impressed were,
1 Difference of manner
Japanese looks so sensitive, but they say about the body shape for the first thing meeting with guy.

2 working women
US is very equal, that much more ladies are living severe working relationships. They are strong and have confidence.

Me, personally, living in US for 6 months, learning the difference between JP and US was fun at first. Now it turned into pain, because I am too shy to talk to Americans with my broken, trivial English. I questioned the meaning I came here.
This book reminded me the exciting points of finding difference, and gave me little confidence to get used to the difference.
