Focusing primarily on India and Western societies, England, and America, Laungani (Manchester U., England) offers students and scholars an opportunity to "enter" into the world of peoples of other cultures to see it from their own unique perspectives and to gain insight into the manner in which they think, make choices, and inform judgments concerning matters of daily life. Coverage includes the multiple meanings of the term "culture"; the nature and rationale of cross-cultural psychology; a theoretical model of the similarities and differences between the major value systems of Eastern and Western cultures; ethics in research; methodological issues in cross-cultural psychology; cultural and ethical considerations in conducting research; family structures and child rearing practices across cultures; intercultural perception and interaction; the nature of health, happiness, and illness across cultures; and cross-cultural perspectives on death and bereavement.
