Great resource - By: K. Seidler, 06 Jun 2008 
This is a brilliant book for those studying yoga. It has plenty of detail which would comein handy during study.If you need help on joint movements & muscles being used during postures the this is the book you need to buy- very clear, interesting & brilliantly illustrated.
Good reference for students and teachers - By: Laura Kai, 20 Apr 2008 
This new book is one of very few available on the specific subject of yoga & anatomy.
The nice thing about this book is its accessibility - it has pictures of a range of posesin the style shown on the book cover, illustrating the muscular-skeletal systemin the asana & highlighting the muscles being utilised (some postures shown from several angles). In some illustrations, the internal organs are also shown.
This helps you to relate anatomical & physiological knowledge to the actual asanas of yoga. The book also includes notes on breathing & the action of the jointsin each posture.
Not as in-depth as the Coulter book, but at a good 400 pages shorter, that is to be expected. What this book offers instead is a more visual, illustrated approach & a great reference tool for serious students & teachers.
