Has anyone read the book History as a propaganda - Tibetan Exiles vs PRC by John Power?

For those who wants to compare the version of Tibetan history told by Tibetan Exiles and those told by PRC, I find that it's a good book to read and it provides good analysis. It would be worth reading both version while bearing in mind that 'propaganda' is always an issue. So read them with filter eye.

You can read the book online at

I've been more interested to find out the history of Tibet..

It sounds like a good read, and it's good that you're suggesting the skeptics' guide to reading this. However, one must also check their own cultural filter at the door, before reading a book like this. smile.gif
