A friend recently sent me an extract from a book called 'The Shadow of the Dalai Lama' by Victor and Victoria Trimondi.
All I've been able to find out on-line is that this couple is of German origin; the websites I've found are either run by them or their supporters. They appear to make a speciality of 'debunking' Tibetan Buddhism. At least some of their books are available online in English but only a couple, in German, on Amazon.
Can anyone tell me more about these two? Specifically, what is the basis for their expertise (if any) in the field?
I'm curious because of the almost total lack information about them, especially from Buddhist sources (book reviews, etc.).
Thanks.
Margaret
