BEIJING, Dec. 31 -- The renowned Chinese
contemporary author Sun Shuyang, who has so far composed more than a dozen
influential contemporary works, has published a new book named "Tibet Reader",
after his magnum opus "China Reader" received raves across the world.
The book was come out after Sun's consultation of
more than 200 classics and 50 video documents of Tibet, and was amended thrice.
The book begins when Princess Wencheng entered into
Tibet, and ends with a description of Tibet's today and tomorrow.
Su Shuyang said: "It is neither a general history nor
monograph, but merely a solution to people's maze of Tibet, in-depth and
straightforward, and it has a good prospect of Tibetan people's life and Tibet
itself."

Su said he can't believe in three aspects: foreigners
love China's Tibet much than Chinese people themselves, westerners' distortion
of Chinese culture and history, some western media's reports on Tibet. He wanted
to dispel all the misunderstandings through his new book.
Su Shuyang is a renowned author and screenwriter in
China. His works are mostly about grassroots life in China and many of them have
been translated into some foreign languages and Chinese ethnic minority
dialects. His books have enriched the lives of many, especially in the 1970s and
80s.
