    Abstract: "British knowledge about China changed fundamentally in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Rather than treating these changes in British understanding as if Anglo-Sino relations were purely bilateral, this study looks at how British imperial networks in India and Southeast Asia were critical mediators in the British encounter of China"--Provided by publisher

    Abstract: In the barren landscape of remote western Tibet lies the ruins of a mysterious kingdom. A kingdom whose capital was 3600 meters high on the Tibetan plateau. A kingdom that offers archaeological treasures that compare with Italy's Pompeii. This kingdom once controlled the trade in gold, silk and spices between India and China. It was a kingdom of fabulous wealth and great religious significance. For two centuries it was the cradle of Himalayan Buddhism. Yet this spiritual and commercial hub, which prospered for seven centuries, vanished without a trace in 1630. Until now the mystery of what was the Tibetan kingdom of Guge has remained unresolved. The Italian archaeologist Guiseppe Tucci was the first to investigate the existence of the Guge kingdom in the early 1930's. Since then, the extraordinary altitude, hostile terrain and political upheaval have made sure that only a select few have travelled to the region to make serious study. Guge - Lost Kingdom of Tibet journeys to to the extreme corner of West Tibet with two of the world's experts, Tibetan historian Tsering Gyalpo and American archaeologist John Bellezza. Their aim is to unravel this mystery.
