2.0 out of 5 stars Not too impressed., September 15, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This book has some good things to show your students. But it seems to suffer from the same problem with many newer books: the author attempts to improve on Alexander without even 10% of the understanding that Alexander had. The end result is slightly embarrassing. That being said, I think there are a few good parts to this book that are on target; but I'm afraid that it's a bit much of a break from tradition for me. Which would be OK if it were a leap forward, which it is not.

3.0 out of 5 stars I wish it were a full size book- while it is a nice little book., January 1, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I wish it were a larger full size paperback. It is a nice little book, and has many photos. I just wish it were larger and the print larger so it would be easier to see and read.

5.0 out of 5 stars good little book, September 8, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This is a pocket size book, but has a lot of information and full of pictures. I do not know if it is complete information on Alexander technique or not - it is my first book on this subject.
