The Manual of Standard Tibetan presents the everyday speech of Lhasa as it is currently used in Tibet and among the Tibetan diaspora. It not only places the language in its natural context but also highlights along the way key aspects of Tibetan civilization and Vajrayana Buddhism. The Manual; which consists of forty-one lessons; is illustrated with many drawings and photographs and also includes two informative political and linguistic maps of Tibet. Two CDs provide an essential oral complement to the manual. A detailed introduction presents a linguistic overview of spoken and written Tibetan.

Five StarsBy Rose PetersenGreat!1 of 2 people found the following review helpful. just as expectedBy mjperry1This book is a feminist review book on quite a few different subjects. But it is kinda outdated with statistics and up to date feminist issues. It reviews issues from the 1990's. I learned a lot from it but some was just generalized reviews.
