lately I have been getting into Yoga as a beginner -- and this book was just perfect for me and just at the right time. Prior to reading this book I was a bit daunted by yoga and the philosophy behind it. This book illuminates the basics in very simple, concise and clear way. It also has easy to understand discussions on various topics of interest, such as the different forms of yoga practices, exercise routines for different situations, etc. I find yoga lot more accessible after reading this book and highly recommend it.

This book was reviewed in the July/August 2000 issue of Yoga Journal. The reviewer liked it. "A complete novice could spend an hour or so perusing this book and come away with a solid elementary understanding of yoga and what it offers. It's not an ultimate guide - it doesn't pretend to be - but it is an excellent first guide."

Congratulations to the author for making this subject accessible for a newbie like me. Very easy to read and simplifies the subject matter. I came across it in a book store by chance, was intrigued by it. I picked it up and read it almost in one go! Now I am ready to explore more on this field including incorporating yoga in my daily life.
