Many previous studies on the history of Qing Dynasty and Tibetan Buddhism use Chinese materials – however, the author here is a Tibetan scholar who references and quotes a large number of first-hand Tibetan materials, providing extensive and informative research. The book systematically combs the various factions of Tibetan Buddhism, and expounds the establishment, inheritance, religious ceremony and theoretical characteristics of each faction.
