What is it really like to live with a Chinese wife?

This short book is written by a Norwegian business executive who met his wife in Shanghai. They have lived in Europe for a couple of years now, and he has crafted this book to help those who are looking at the prospect of marrying a Chinese girl to better understand what they are getting themselves into.

Always with a touch of humor, the book talks about issues ranging from Chinese culture, their views on equality, academic studies, decision making, money management, family values, thriftiness, to the principles of raising kids and many other topics.

The end of the book summarizes it well:
“I do think a Chinese woman makes a great wife; strong willed, extremely loyal, family focused, thrifty, well educated and street smart.
But how do you know if it is the right choice for you?
Simple; if you like what you have read in this book, and you are prepared to respect and support all her little idiosyncrasies, then a Chinese woman is probably right for you.”
