Cover of Karma Phuntsho: History of Bhutan (ePUB)

In 2008, Bhutan triumphantly took the stage as the world’s youngest democracy. But despite its growing prominence-and rising scholarly interest in the country-Bhutan remains one of the least studied, and least well-known places on the planet.Karma Phuntsho s The History of Bhutan is the first book to offer a comprehensive history of Bhutan in English. Along with a detailed social and political analysis, it offers substantive discussions of Bhutan s geography and culture; the result is the clearest, richest account of this nation and its history ever published for general readers.A 2015 Choice Magazine Outstanding Academic Title Award Winner
