For a country that has been so much a focus of international concern,
Tibet’s fraught history under Chinese rule has been poorly documented. But the
gaps have at last been filled. Tsering Shakya’s new book, The Dragon in the Land
of Snows, is a remarkably comprehensive and unbiased account of the country’s
past 50 years. It avoids the emotional rhetoric that has marred other histories
of modern Tibet, and in its detail and use of original sources will be hard to
match. Published by Pimlico, 拢12.50, ISBN 0712665331.
