A Complete Worldwide Resource Guide

Have you ever been in a foreign country and wondered how to get from the airport to the city center? How to connect to the Internet to check your e-mail? How to find a doctor who speaks English? Or how to use a pay phone?

The Global Road Warrior has all the answers. It contains pragmatic travel and business information critical to daily survival and success while "on the road" internationally.

Packed With Vital Information

The top 100 countries are covered. Each country listing includes: key facts on the people, economy, workweek, holdiays, money and climate; information on visas, passports, immunization, entry and departure formalities, and dealing with emergencies; internal country travel information for trains, taxis, air travel, auto rentals and subways, as well as a detailed country map; and extensive information on business centers, including airports, hotel accommodations, restaurants and world trade centers.

Communication Solutions at your Fingertips

Knowing how to stay in communication with your clients and colleagues while traveling is more important than every. The Global Road Warrior describes how to use pay phones, make international calls and rent or use your own cellular phone. Country and city dialing codes are available in a handy format, as is information on call-back services, how to fax and how to use foreign postal services.

* Includes extensive information about how to access the Internet from anywhere in the world.

Service Support While on the Road

You will find the names, addresses and telephone numbers for local copy shops, printers, computer stores, translation and interpreting services, as well as international courier services in each major city.

Technical Support

Local technical support telephone numbers for key hardware and software vendors are provided, as well as customer support web site URLs. Also: local electrical requirements, and computer and modem cable connections.

Business Culture Insights

Understanding the business culture of a country is as important as knowing about product or service. The Global Road Warrior includes practical information on greetings and courtesies, women in business, decision-making, business meetings, local views of contracts, business attire and socializing.
