by Wade Imre Morissette. Morissette, who has studied yoga for over 17 years and teaches it internationally, focuses on yoga as a spiritual practice. He explains five steps-physicality, energy, meditation, awareness, and inner peace-to lead the practitioner to an inner connection with Atman, God, and truth. Physicality consists of mainstream yoga sequences-beginner, intermediate, and advanced-which are insufficiently illustrated here. The book concludes with an appendix that classifies the yoga postures used in the book. Verdict Yoga has become Westernized as an exercise regimen; readers curious about its philosophical aspects will find much to enjoy here. Those interested in yoga as exercise will benefit more from a better illustrated work such as Martin Kirk's Hatha Yoga Illustrated. --Library Journal. (Check Catalog)
