On the other hand, being able to pass among the herd and blend in is useful, so perhaps a book would be in order. But it should be read as a field guide to communicating with the natives, not as a blueprint for becoming one of them!

I agree. You have no reason to change the basic YOU. But to feel not so uncomfortable and to feel less awkward in social groupings would be nice. I also like what Mike said about seeking out your own niche. Why yearn to become like everyone else? Seek out people who "get you."
