If you have one comprehensive book on yoga this should be it.
This book generally shows the progression of the poses from beginner to advanced. You will not be talked down to in this book. I like having more information then I need so that I can reference back and progress when I'm ready.

inspiring book
This is a good book to read if you are a serious yoga practitioner or teacher, since it reviews in a simplified way the Yogasutras of Patanjali and Iyengar's point of view on life and life experiences. It has nothing to do with religion, it is just a different take on life that might prove useful and enlightening.

Highly detailed classic for serious practioners
I teach meditation and I am educated in biology, biochemistry and psychology. I am also a student of world religions and a yoga practioner. During my graduate school years, I was also a Teaching Fellow in Physiology and I teach workshops on pranayama and biofeedback. Therefore, I think my opinion has some weight in this arena although I realize there are more serious yoga practioners who have ...

A great tool for beginners
I first got this book from the library when I was waiting to have surgery for uterine growths. I had never done yoga, and I was looking for a way to ease my pain. This book can actually help with many mild medical conditions. It is set up in an easy to reference way, with lots of pictures and clear, detailed descriptions. Many of the positions even have 2 possible methods, one for the novice, ...

even if you have never been to a yoga class ...
... this book will still be of great interest and value to you if you are spiritually inclined. the top reviewers assertion that the yoga sutras represents the theory behind the practice of hatha yoga is not really correct. hatha yoga (which is what 'yoga' normally stands for in the west) is actually only a minor part of the yoga sutras - i think it occurs in no more than a single verse in ...

Start Here
Fairly quick, but vitally important read to anyone studying the media, communication, and politics. Experimental design demonstrates the media has the ability to set the national agenda, prime what people think is important within issues, and frame the way we think about the world. This is the seminal and original work in the field.

Truly The BOOK
This is the book for anyone who takes asanas seriously. There are so many variations and each asana properly explained. If all you want is 1 yoga book, this is the book. Note that this is Iyengar style yoga focusing on detailed alignment. It is impossible for anyone to improve on this book as far as Iyengar yoga is concerned.

Yoga For The Heart
This book has been a gift to society. BKS Iyengar discloses his being and we get a glimpse of what yoga can be like for a master and that we too can attain bliss yoga as well. I am a yoga teacher and this book is great for teachers as well because you can share with your students selected readings before their practice to encourage them to take their practice to another level. I own the ...

I usually like to start my day by checking the news, and I usually start by taking a quick look at both [...] and [...] that's my attempt at trying to get both sides of the story, but I've gotten to the point that I don't want to read the morning news anymore, because they include so much tragic news of children being horribly abused, or women being killed or raped, and children being killed, ...

A must read on yoga principles
While being an avid yoga practicioner, the first time I got to know anything about B.K.S. Iyengar was when I picked up this book. Since then, I have done much more reading by him. Tree of Yoga was wonderful in explaining some basic principles of yoga, and the concepts behind it. The book didn't go into explaining or documenting the various asanas (for that read Light on Yoga), but instead ...

Good, clear guide
I was a bit skeptical before trying out this CD because I've only ever practiced at a class before, but it works very well as a way of keeping a regular yoga practice. There's no music on the CD, just the instructor's clear and confident voice, with a bit of a European accent. The instructions on the CD are very precise, as you'd expect with an Iyengar yoga teacher, and there are helpful ...
