Media Reviews
"What emerges from [Laird Thomas and the Dalai Lama's] give-and-take is a thoughtful dialogue (call it a philosophical dialectic) about Tibet's past not simply as a sequence of events, but as seen through the perspective of myth, spirituality, morality, human frailty and fate."

STORY OF TIBET: Conversations With The Dalai Lama (H)
Laird, Thomas
New. ISBN: 0802118275. Hardcover. . Free giftwrap upon request. Brand new, not a used item. Ships in sturdy box with delivery confirmation (in US). Multiple copies may be available. Journalist Thomas Laird spent over 60 hours in "candid," one-on-one interviews with His Holiness the Dalai "Lama," addressing His Holiness's beliefs about "history," "science," "reincarnation," and Buddhism. Laird brings these conversations to life with a rich historical narrative that outlines thousands of years of Tibetan "civilization," "myth," and spirituality. Since so much of Tibetan identity is based on oral "history," the result is a very personal look at Tibet's "past," and a summation of his life's "work," through the Dalai Lama's own eyes.
