Samenvatting	The destiny of Tibet remains of enormous interest to millions of people worldwide. This fascinating new book, Tibetan Shadows, is an engrossing cultural journey through the Himalayas and the region of Tibet under the crushing Chinese regime. Mustang, Zangskar, Bhutan, Ladakh and all the refugees living in Northern India stand as the last survivors of a dying breed that had such a compelling influence over the Western world. In this book, Claudio Cardelli shares and illustrates his memories with breathtaking photographs of the valleys and ridges crowning the ancient realms of Tibet, along with stunning images of Tibetan culture and life. Having taken over thirty years to explore the entire region and its treasures, the author debates the now critical political and humanitarian issue of Tibet. The captivating account of two different trips in time prompts a natural comparison between the situation back in 1987 and the present-day events, in the attempt to follow the tracks of the endless tragedy of the Tibetan people.
