In contrast to the wealth of information provided by Switzerland Tourism, reliable and up-to-date information specifically intended for foreigners living and working in Switzerland isn't so easy to find - particularly in English. Our aim in publishing this book was to help fill this void and provide the comprehensive, practical information necessary for a relatively trouble-free life. You may have visited Switzerland as a tourist, but living and working there's a different matter altogether.

Adjusting to a different environment and culture and making a home in any foreign country can be a traumatic and stressful experience - and Switzerland is no exception.

Living and Working in Switzerland is a comprehensive handbook on a wide range of everyday subjects and represents the most up-to-date source of general information available to foreigners in Switzerland. It isn't, however, simply a catalogue of dry facts and figures, but a practical and entertaining look at life. Adjusting to life in a new country is a continuous process, and although this book will help reduce your novice phase and minimise the frustrations, it doesn't contain all the answers most of us don't even know the right questions to ask!

What it will do, however. Most importantly, it will help save you time, trouble and money, and repay your investment many times over. Although you may find some of the information a bit daunting, don't be discouraged.

Most problems occur only once and fade into insignificance after a short time as you face the next half a dozen -. Most foreigners in Switzerland would agree that, all things considered, they love living there. A period spent in Switzerland is a wonderful way to enrich your life, broaden your horizons, and, with any luck and some hard work you may even make your fortune. I trust this book will help you avoid the pitfalls of life in Switzerland and smooth your way to a happy and rewarding future in your new home.

An excellent introduction to Switzerland, which will enable you to enjoy all that this fine country has to offer and save you time and trouble in the process. I'm just about to go and live and work in Switzerland. Since it is a regulated country, it is very helpful to have one source of information about what you need to do in order to get on.

This book provides that information. It came top of the list of books to get, as recommended by my future co-workers. Its pages are stuffed with practical information on everyday subjects. I might have avoided some embarrassments and frights if I had read it prior to my first Swiss encounters. Deserves an honoured place on any newcomer's bookshelf. Crammed with useful information and lightened with humorous quips which make the facts more readable. I have taken up an assignment for a period of 18 months and found this book very useful.

It has eased my stress of visiting a new country for the first time. Highly recommended. You may have already requested this item. Please select Ok if you would like to proceed with this request anyway. WorldCat is the world's largest library catalog, helping you find library materials online.
