This review is from: Oil for the Lamps of China (Textbook Binding)
The book "Oil for the lamps of China" is, besides being a very much "readable" book, an incredible lesson in how to deal with and get along with the Eastern culture.

Highly recommended reading for anyone involved in sales & marketing.
