"This study offers important insights into the lives of a multi-generational crosssection of exiled Tibetans in India. The unique perspective authentically encapsulates the lived realities of a displaced community. It provides humanistic insight and empathetically paints the various hues that mark the identity of Tibetan refugees. It should be of particular interest to psychologists working amongst groups facing similar affl ictions, as well as to an audience wishing to further their understanding of the tribulations of exiled Tibetans." - Rinchen H.C. Choegyal, SOAS, University of London; South Asia Research, 2010.
