Do you want to give yourself (and others!) a chance for a more positive sense of self, while at the same time also learn its connection to culture? This book will help you do just that! Grounded in sociological and management research, A Person's Identity and How It Is Shaped by an Asian Culture provides useful tools for anyone seeking to better understand who they are and how the culture in which they were raised helped shape their identity. Though author Dhira Dhiravegin is a citizen of Thailand and focuses his research on Thai social and cultural mores and norms, readers can apply these universal principles to their own unique situation. Delving deep into the meanings and theories of concepts such as ethics and societal values-and the interplay among them-the author addresses some of the most important questions in life and how it should be lived. Not only does he offer an analysis of the ways that culture shapes identity, but he also acknowledges the impediments it raises and offers strategies for overcoming these setbacks. Whoever you are, this book will help you ask important questions about the things that truly matter to people, as well as offering you an opportunity to become a better and happier person - for you.
