Centered around Indiana University, it’s a place to nurture your intellect and get back to nature. That’s why the destination draws industrious thinkers, creators, and adventurers from around the world who make their home and memories amid its limestone cliffs, lush forests, and pristine lakes. Lake life is a way of life here (we have the state’s largest), but Bloomington’s nationally recognized music industry, comedy scene, and food culture make it easy to forget the serene natural beauty just minutes outside of town. It’s an ideal destination for day hikes and rides, late-night shows, great coffee and craft spirits, unique hotels, inns, and cabins. Just an hour south of Indianapolis and within three hours of most major Midwest cities, Bloomington is an entrancing Heartland favorite that keeps visitors coming back, year after year.

As this objective goes against many of the structural and economic interests in the city, the 'illogical' aspects of plans and regulations would be expected to be immediately transgressed. Surprisingly, however, municipal regulation of investments for significant new uses of property is strong, as is the provision of services to neighborhoods with little to no expected returns.

Lektorálta: Kara György Elõszó A kézikönyv célja, hogy bemutassa a Tibet múltjával és jelené- vel kapcsolatos legfontosabb ma használatos tényanyagot és bibliográfiai adatokat. Segédanyagnak készült az amerikai felsõ- oktatás részére. Azok, akik – maguk nem szakemberként – megpróbáltak tibeti adatokat felhasználni belsõ-, kelet- és dél-ázsiai kurzu- saikban, tisztában vannak azokkal a nehézségekkel, amelyeket a megbízható és hozzáférhetõ információk hiánya okozott. Az igazat megvallva azonban el kell ismernünk, hogy Tibetrõl és lakóiról szép számmal akadnak általános, s néha felületes munkák. Tudományos cikkekben sincs hiány; sokukat idegen nyelven írták és olyan szakmai folyóiratokban jelentek meg, amelyek csak azok számára hozzáférhetõk, akik elég szerencsések ahhoz, hogy egy nagyobb és a témára szakosodott könyvtár közelében dolgozhatnak. Így ezek az írásbeli anyagok csak a szakemberek számára elérhetõk, és pont ez az egyik ok, amiért úgy gondoltuk, hogy egy olyan általános segédkönyv, mint a A tibeti mûveltség kézikönyve sok olyan tanár számára hasznos lenne, akik a témá- hoz máskülönben nem túl szorosan kapcsolódó kurzusokat tar- tanak.
