Written in a language that captures the essential ideas of the original text in words and phrases that are easily understandable by the general reader or undergraduate, this straightforward translation aims at conveying the excitement of the "Yogasutras". '... this book already does widen the usual presentations of yoga. Malhotra's translation of Patanjali's aphorisms [...] seems in line with current scholarly translations and is eminently readable... Particularly enjoyable and well suited to the rising metaphor paradigm is the comparison of Star Wars and Yoga.' Australian Religion Studies Review 'Students of Philosophy will appreciate the clear analytical style of the book that I found easy to reference even weeks after my initial reading. Students of Yoga and the casual reader will enjoy the lucid explanation of the Sutras and the ideas surrounding them. Of special interest is the easy to follow section on the practical aspects of Yoga that includes the author in several different postures via black and white photographs.' Academia
