Comprehensive information in a single source

This is a very useful book for anyone who is moving to Switzerland for the first time. I found in this publication many useful pieces of advice for the everyday living in Switzerland. Do not hesitate to buy this book if you plan to stay in Switzerland for a long time. Taxes, health insurance, renting a house, travelling, etc. are only a few examples of the subjects reviewed in this comprensive book. Sometimes the author employs a style that may be considered a bit irreverent, but I guess that he tried to write with a senseof humour.A good choice.Marcelo Garcia

A must-read for anyone contemplating a move to Switzerland.

This book is packed with facts you'll want to know if you are considering moving to Switzerland. Don't bother calling the Consulate--just look it up in this book. Everything, from details about residence permits, to the cost of every conceivable type of train pass, to minutiae about language integration programs in the public schools, are dealt with.
