"A fascinating study of the development of the images of Tibet that
have excited the Western imagination. Christian missionaries,
Tibetologists, governments, the Theosophists, authors of fiction and
film, and finally Tibetan refugees, have all contributed to the
popular image of Tibet and its people. The essays in IMAGINING TIBET
illustrate how easy it is to misunderstand, even fictionalize, a
culture and its people. ...This book is almost complete in conception
and delivery." - Shambhala Sun
