This book achieves what it sets out in the title/subtitle. We have an introduction to the teacher, to the philosophy, and to the practice. I have to admit that one of the reasons that I enjoyed the book is that my idea of yoga aligns with the author - not every pose is for every body. There was so much adherence to the "proper alignment" for so long and it ignored the fact that not every body is able to move like those poses and it may, in fact, be inappropriate for some bodies. The many variations shown in the photos give many options to all levels of movement and bodies.Four stars
