"Very insightful. The Iyengar family make profound leaps to getting yoga to the west. Their personal practice and knowledge makes them the premier authorities on the physical and philosophical aspects of yoga. A must read for those interested in yoga."
"Extreeeeemly detailed and difficult to follow. Descriptions of poses are in a completely different section from the pictures of them. Thorough overview of yoga philosophies. Too thorough to be interesting to me or helpful."
"This is such a comprehesive book. The reason it has only 4 stars is because it's not easy to navigate. There is a lot of cross referencing between charts and chapters."
