Jackson Jones je bezstarostný a mezi spolužáky velmi oblíbený jedenáctiletý kluk, jenže když mu do pusy znenadání přibude tuna železa, stane se z něj jako mávnutím kouzelného proutku jeden z těch podivínských exotů, kterým se se svou partou dřív posmíval. A to je jeho konec – aspoň do chvíle, než náhodou odhalí tajemnou špionskou organizaci EKZOTI, kterou tvoří banda technologicky vylepšených mimoňů bojujících za bezpečnost naší planety. Ale šílený padouch, který si brousí zuby na ovládnutí světa, není tím jediným, s čím se musí Jackson ve svém novém životě vypořádat...

Exploring ethnic Tibet independently is a challenge. With the 'land of snows' having some of the wildest and roughest road routes in high Asia, motoring, mountain-biking and trekking options are all given due attention in this new edition. High quality, numerous maps set this guide apart from other guides on Tibet and the trekking section has been expanded to include more on the main treks, including Everest Base Camp, Genden to Samye, Namtso trek and Kailiash region treks. Particular attention has been paid to the Amdo and Kham regions, not usually covered in guidebooks. Political and cultural issues make Tibet a sensitive destination for Westerners, so Michael Buckley's authoritative advice includes guidelines on cultural etiquette, local customs, and travelling with minimum impact on the culture and environment. The chapter on language includes a section covering Tibetan script.
