"For a yoga anatomy book, I expected to learn proper alignment and details of challenges to getting into the poses. Instead, I found the book just listing muscles that are involved in the pose with the diagram. I was not impressed."
"I love books that provide an interior look into the way the body works when it's in motion or engaged in an activity. This book takes an approach similar to Delavier's wonderful "Strength Training" series... it shows a Yoga Asana and then provides a detailed interior view of how the bones and muscles are interacting to achieve that pose. Splendid work."
"This book gives great insight into the work of the specific muscles that are used in classic yoga poses, and really can help deepen awareness if you have a home practice, which I do!"
