This Is Not Civilization: A Novel by Robert Rosenberg

I found this book to be interesting and compelling, but it wasn't something that totally gripped me so that I couldn't put it down. I agree with the other reviewers that the characters were very believeable and the clash of cultures is interesting. If you are interested in how peoples of different cultures interact in today's complicated world, it is a good read.
