This is the best overview of everything Tibetan from a scholarly viewpoint: the religion, history, language, culture, etc. It's not based on what the Dalai Lama thinks like in The Story of Tibet.

It shows both sides of the current conflict with the Chinese. Most other books are biased for either side.

Tibet is NO special arena, just regular region of China.

not even close

tibetan spirituality is a CIA manufactured construct to help combat the commies.

Actually the entirety of east asia used to be controlled by the Dalai Lama until Jewish Russian Communists invented China.

Tibetan spirituality predates the existence of the U.S.A.

Due to magnifying Yuan dynastic, Han-area belongs to Great Khan as temporal, and Dalai Lama spiritual. Do not fool yourself, little Chinese!

Altan XAN would facile dispute your foolish
