Cornerstone Textbook for Bringing You into a new Context

This text intelligently presents concepts invaluable to understanding non-Western world views & societies. It will get you thinking in new ways that will help you tune your cross-cultural ministry communications to make them impact those you've been sent to more effectively & compassionately. It is brainy--which is good. So if you're looking for a light read, this isn't it. It's still a core read for the serious missionary.
