This post is part of an ongoing series exploring the complexities of The Panchen Lama Controversy.
This is a concise list of books referenced in my research. However, there is a vast array of literature available on Tibet, the Panchen Lama, and the Dalai Lama.
[1] The Search for the Panchen Lama
By Isabel Hilton
ISBN: 0-393-04969-8
[2] China’s Tibet?
Autonomy or Assimilation

[3] Tibet’s Last Stand?
The Tibetan Uprising of 2008 and China’s Response

[5] Hostage of Beijing[1]
The Abduction of the Panchen Lama
By Gilles Van Grasdorff
ISBN: 1-86204-561-5
This book is included solely to provide a comprehensive record of works on the Panchen Lama subject. However, its title and subtitle are highly misleading. While the book primarily discusses historical events in Tibet leading up to the controversy, it contains no information regarding the abduction of Gedhun Choekyi Nyima.
