Plus d'un million de Lissou vivent dans les montagnes les plus élevées et les plus difficiles d'accès des marches tibétaines de Yunnan et de l'extrême nord du Myanma, où ils ont échappé à la modernité jusqu'à la période contemporaine. Tout en s'accommodant d'un environnement inhospitalier et d'une technologie rudimentaire, ils ont élaboré une civilisation d'une haute tenue intellectuelle. Le présent ouvrage est le premier qui permette de s'initier à une connaissance de la culture et de la langue de ce peuple tibéto-birman.
