sometimes inadvertently overlooking the few but substantial
cultural differences. These cultural distinctions underlie business
practice as well as the laws of the land. In this book, August
Minke highlights the major legal differences between continental
Europe and USA. that permeate business relations. He explains in
layman's terms how these cultural differences impact the laws and
the way business is conducted in the U.S. and Europe. What readers
say about the book: "Fortright, upright, and sometimes brutally
honest." "Your book was very helpful in providing us with insights
when negotiating with our prospective partner." August Minke holds
advanced law degrees from the Netherlands and the United States.

business manager in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany. He

States, as well as U.S. law firms on international litigation
involving European matters. Mr. Minke also trains corporate
