It's interesting for me to read how you do in Germany since I experience everything the other way around. Here are some nice books that David and/or me helped to understand each others culture much better: "Xenophobes Guide to the Germans" ;-) http://www.amazon.com/Xenophobes-Guide-Germans-Stefan-Zeidenitz/dp/1902825292/ref=sr_1_20/105-8161705-4041203?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1184893011&sr=8-20
"Do as the Germans do" http://www.amazon.com/When-Germany-Do-Germans-Clued/dp/0844225533/ref=sr_1_1/105-8161705-4041203?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1184893115&sr=1-1 and "planet Germany" ( GREAT one!!) http://www.amazon.de/Planet-Germany-Expedition-Heimat-Hawaii-Toasts/dp/3596173248/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/028-4007282-4603713?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1184893160&sr=8-1
