Book Synopsis A History of Modern Tibet, 1913-1951 by : Melvyn C. Goldstein
Book excerpt: V. 2. It is not possible to understand contemporary politics between China and the Dalai Lama without understanding what happened during the 1950s. This book presents an understanding of that period. It furnishes portraits of these major players and unravels the fateful intertwining of Tibetan and Chinese politics against the backdrop of the Korean War.
