Product Description
Want to know about Tibet? Read this book. The Tibet issue is totally politicized. Western academics can't get access to Tibet and Tibetan archives unless they kowtow to the Communist authorities in their writing. Then there's the Hollywood types who frequent Dharmasala and do their own version of kowtowing to the sometimes bizarre collection of people surrounding the Dalai Lama. Tsering Shakya's book is an important contribution because it represents fair-minded scholarship at its best.
