Présentation de l'éditeur

The author of China Rising here describes Tibet's long and independent history, focusing on its politics and culture, and shows how its future now lies largely in China's hands. An impeccably researched, spirited history of the forces that shaped today's Tibet, right down to the way tea is prepared. Kirkus Reviews
