Hi Jayson,
I would like to say a word on how much I appreciate your blog. This is significant and helpful work. I have finally got around to reading your 3D book. I was very impressed. This is the clearest and most accessible presentation of the 3 cultural dichotomies of Guilt, Shame and Fear that I have seen. I will be using this as a text for some of my courses for cross-cultural workers.
Mark, thanks for the encouraging word about The 3D Gospel!
