If you're looking for a light-hearted and humorous take on Czech culture, then Terje B. Englund's The Czechs in a Nutshell is the book for you.

While some stereotypes Englund perpetuates may be familiar to those who have already visited the Czech Republic, others are more original, and all of them are presented in a way that is sure to make readers laugh.
