This book provides guidelines for Christians preparing to live and serve effectively in another culture and is a useful tool for short-term workers and `tentmakers' and a helpful resource for missionaries already on the field. The clear language makes it invaluable for those to whom English is a second language, and for translating into other languages. Churches will also find a wealth of useful material to assist them in selecting, sending and caring for missionaries.

`Dr Jo Anne Dennett's book is of great importance to all who seek to live in cultures other than their own in order to present the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Missionaries will benefit from a reading of this book in preparation for cross-cultural ministry.' Dr Panya Baba, Evangelical Missionary Society, Nigeria and former President of Evangelical Churches of West Africa.

`Dr Jo Anne Dennett provides a readable and understandable introduction to the issues of working in another culture. At a time when more people are going overseas for short term assignments with little time for preparation, this book will provide some good basic guidelines. It fills a great need.' Rev. Dr David J. Price, Principal, Bible College of Victoria.

`The book is straightforward and deals with most issues well, and should prove extremely helpful to prospective missionaries.' Mrs Prue Boyd, Missionary with CMS in Zaire for almost 10 years.
