RECENT WORKS IN WESTERN LANGUAGES ON NEPAL AND THE HIMALAYAS:

Gregory G. Maskarinec gregorym @hawaii .edu

This list seeks to resurrect a formerly regular feature of the Himalayan Research Bul/etilz. It notes works that have appeared in the past six years, primarily books on Nepal but also articles that have come to my attention and also some publications on the wider Himalayan region. As newly appointed contributing editor of the Himalayan Research Bulletin for recent publications, I hope to compile annually a list similar to this. Future lists will be more extensive, particularly in regard to journal articles, which have been slighted here. Achieving greater comprehensiveness will require assistance, so I invite all readers to submit bibliographic entries, of their own works or of any material that has come to their attention, to me at
