"No one is better qualified than Tucci to write a general yet
comprehensive work on such a complex subject. His explorations in
Tibet, extensive personal experiences, direct observations of
ritual, and unmatched textual knowledge are graciously combined in
this valuable and highly readable volume." (Barbara Nimri Aziz,
Journal of Asian Studies). "Tucci's most significant contribution
is his application of a systematic analysis of parallels and
interconnections among the religious practices of Tibetans...We
have both a thorough analysis of significant texts as well as a
description and appreciation of rituals, architecture, and
artifacts." (Francis V. Tiso, Cross Currents). "[Readers] are not
soon to find a more informative, comprehensive rendering of the
religions of Tibet-minus all the myths and by a scholar as
extraordinary as Giuseppe Tucci." (A. Torn Grunfeld, Focus on Asian
Studies). "We have here a synthesis of Tucci's knowledge and
insight into one of the most extraordinary of the world's great
cultures." (Ninian Smart, Times Literary Supplement).
