Book Reviews of The Yoga Tradition: Its History, Literature, Philosophy and Practice
Book Review: Dry, academic, boring
Summary: 2 Stars
If you are looking for an encyclopedia of yoga this book is a reasonable consideration. It is, however, very dry, fact-filled, clinical, and boring. I have practiced yoga daily for over 36 years. I also teach yoga. I appreciate the scholarship contained in this book. But it is too academic for most readers. Most readers will want something more engaging from the text. Perhaps this book will serve the needs of those who want a reference book for their bookshelf. Namaste.
