520    "Lodi Gyaltsen Gyari spent decades drawing attention to 
       the plight of the Tibetan people and striving for 
       resolution of the Tibetan-Chinese conflict. He was the 
       Dalai Lama's special envoy and chief negotiator with the 
       People's Republic of China in the formal negotiations over
       the status of Tibet. In this revealing memoir, Gyari 
       chronicles his lifetime of service to the Dalai Lama and 
       the Tibetan cause. Gyari recounts his work conducting 
       formal dialogue with the Chinese leadership from 2002 to 
       2012, as well as his efforts during the many years of 
       quiet diplomacy preceding these historic negotiations. He 
       details the fits and starts of the parties' relationship, 
       addressing successes as well as failures and highlighting 
       misperceptions, missteps, and missed opportunities by both
       sides. Gyari grounds his recollections of his time as 
       special envoy in his life experience, providing a powerful
       account of the personal side of Tibet's struggles. He 
       describes the Tibetan resistance to the Chinese invasion 
       and the tumultuous early years of the Tibetan community in
       exile as well as his family's history and spiritual 
       lineage. A reincarnated Tibetan Buddhist lama forced to 
       flee Tibet during the Chinese invasion, Gyari illuminates 
       how his political efforts fulfilled his spiritual calling.
       Informed by his unparalleled experiences, Gyari offers 
       realizable-but provocative-recommendations for restarting 
       the Tibetan-Chinese dialogue to achieve a mutually 
       beneficial resolution of the issue. For all readers 
       interested in Tibet's complex modern history, this book 
       offers an incomparable look inside the decades-long effort
       to achieve the Dalai Lama's vision of a reunited Tibet"--
