Editorial Reviews

Review

"Extremely witty and humorous - and preferably enjoyed with an ouzo, several mezedes and at least four chairs to drape the body on!"
--The Hellenic Times

"Xenophobe's Guides aim to help us understand our differences."
--Daily Express

From the Back Cover

'The Greeks are a very sensual people. Although there appears to be a middle-class restraint towards sex in general, nothing could be more misleading because in fact their conservatism is only skin deep. Small wonder, when they are raised on the most adulterous mythology ever compiled, instead of innocuous nursery rhymes.'
Xenophobia is an irrational fear of foreigners, probably justified, always understandable.
Xenophobe's Guides - an irreverent look at the beliefs and foibles of nations, almost guaranteed to cure Xenophobia.

5.0 out of 5 stars greek traveler, September 20, 2000
By A Customer
This small book better describes the average Greek and his society than any book I have read. The author is frank about the good and not so good qualities of the average greek but does it in a way that doesn't offend. I have shown it to greek friends and they agree with most of the descriptions of the greek society,people, and government. recommended for anyone going to greece which is a must see country.
