    Know Your Dane—Unlocking the Secrets to the Danish Mentality is a comprehensive guide to Danish culture.

Know Your Dane uncovers and analyzes the Danish national identity, including Danish cuisine, holiday traditions, and cultural phenomena such as "The Law of Jante", the concept of "Hygge", and how to navigate the Danes' carefully nuanced humor and social interactions.
