Über das Buch
Descendants of fierce warriors, the good-humored Bhutanese are the happiest people in Asia even if, by western standards, the country's social indicators are the second worst in the continent. The men rule the society even if the women own the family property. Could a week-long trip during festival time shed light on these and other apparent paradoxes?
