Awesome Photography
When I first opened this book at a bookstore, I had to sit in the cafe and finish it because I couldn't sit it down. The pictures are extraordinary...they transport you to another world you wouldn't ordinarily see. Sure, I've traveled extensively but the pictures here provide an experience I wouldn't have access to. I bought the book as a present for myself. THis book...

Prominent map error suggests careless editing
In the large map highlighting the contents of this volume, the Kingdom of Bhutan has been omitted, and its sovereign territory annexed to that of the People's Republic of China.

This review is from: Inside Asia, Volume 1 (v. 1) (English, French and German Edition) (Hardcover)

In the large map highlighting the contents of this volume, the Kingdom of Bhutan has been omitted, and its sovereign territory annexed to that of the People's Republic of China. (BTW, the same error is repeated in the analogous map in Volume 2.)
The disappearance from these volumes of a member state of the United Nations -- the sovereignty of which is *not* in dispute -- is disappointing, not to say shocking, particularly when neighboring Tibet -- the sovereignty of which *is* a matter of controversy -- is a focus of Volume 1. This lapse suggests rather careless editing. |
