DESCRIPTION |
|
| The 42 articles in this book introduce the reader to the myths and realities, problems and prospects of Nepal. The contributors, who are acknowledged scholars, researchers and public-interest observers from different countries, have in-depth knowledge of Nepal from their own work and experience in the country. Insider knowledge, new research findings, as well as opinions and evaluations of history, status quo and potential future scenarios concerning Nepal, are the focus of this book. The book was jointly edited by Ram Pratap Thapa and Joachim Basden of Germany for the German-Nepal Friendship Association as a tribute to Dr Wolf Donner on the occasion of his 75th birthday. An economic geographer, dedicated humanitarian and acclaimed expert on Nepal, Dr Donner has for decades sacrificed his private interests for the benefit and development of Nepal. He has been carrying out, with passion and success, his mission of improving the relationship between Nepal and other countries, especially Germany. This book is intended to serve as a basic source of information for a wide range of readers, including those with a newfound fascination with Nepal and its people, scholars in different disciplines, and generalists. Indeed, to anyone seeking to gain a fairly comprehensive familiarity with Nepal or to gain insights into certain aspects of the country, the book is highly recommended. |
