By contrast, China's charismatically-challenged leaders attract crowds of protestors waving Tibetan flags and shouting \"Free Tibet!\" whenever they visit foreign countries. By now most Westerners probably think they understand the political situation in Tibet. But, John Powers argues, most Western scholars of Tibet evince a bias in favor of one side or the other in this continuing struggle. Some of the most emotionally charged rhetoric, says Powers, is found in studies of Tibetan history. narratives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Powers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0195174267\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780195174267\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/14\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 207\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.98lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.42h x 6.40w x 0.82d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2005 pg. 1877","brand":"John Powers","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46806930260223,"sku":"9780195174267","price":91.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5ac168f6-e949-411e-9e1d-13ca471b41ed.jpg?v=1745378098","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/history-as-propaganda-john-powers-9780195174267","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
