22x16cm, 376 pp., Series: Scandinavian Institute of Asian Studies, Monograph Series, 10. "The history of writing in Asia is dominated by the Chinese logographic script and the Sanskrit alphabet. In the 11th century a completely independent script was invented, perhaps more complex than Chinese, and used by the Tibeto-Burman state that bordered Northwest China, Mongolia & Tibet. Forgotten in Asia and unknown in the West until 1909, the script has not yet revealed all its secrets. This thesis tries to discover the guiding principles in the mind of its inventor" - from rear cover.
