Editors Feng (education, Bangor U.), Byram (education, Durham U.) and Fleming (education, Durham U.) have collected essays on the "complementarity" of education and training in higher learning facilities to describe how intercultural experiences are essential for achieving these competencies. Expert contributors from the field of education show students and practitioners how to blend theory and practice by discussing such topics as ethno-linguistic cultures and narratives in job interviews, teaching cultural competence in the workplace and creating intercultural spaces in multi-ethnic workplaces. The use of "human global positioning systems" to uncover hidden dimensions of culture is also analyzed. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
