Celebrating Stages of Cultural Development We like to compare and contrast ourselves with others, better yet, we love to compare and contrast someone we know to others. We use phrases like "they are two peas in a pod", "no two people are alike" and "they are as different as night and day". No matter when we go we are endlessly fascinated with others and we apply comparison and contrast instinctively. The authors/educators suggest that we are all unique and our uniqueness develops through five interwoven stages: Core Melded Coincidental Adoption Exploratory This book will take you on a journey to determine your own culture first, and show you how to look at mankind's differences from a new set of lenses.
