The "culture shock" series is pretty good too, aimed more at people who actually move to the country.
The difficulties with books like this are 1> they age quickly 2> they are hard to generalise (books of the same length for the Netherlands and India will have wildly different levels of resolution) and of course the authors will be different.
This wood egg approach seems like a reasonable way to deal with the latter.
I've lived in five countries the only general statement I can make is that people are the same everywhere, and completely different as well.
