520    Journalist Michael Booth has lived among the Scandinavians
       for more than ten years, and he has grown increasingly 
       frustrated with the rose-tinted view of this part of the 
       world offered up by the Western media. In this timely book
       he leaves his adopted home of Denmark and embarks on a 
       journey through all five of the Nordic countries to 
       discover who these curious tribes are, the secrets of 
       their success, and, most intriguing of all, what they 
       think of one another.|c--from Amazon.com.
