Anatomy
of Hatha Yoga
A Manual for Students, Teachers, and Practitioners
by H. David Coulter
"The
result of an obvious labor of love, Anatomy of Hatha Yoga
explains hatha yoga in demystified, scientific terms while at the
same time honoring its traditions. It should go a long way to helping
yoga achieve the scientific recognition it deserves. Useful as both
a textbook and as a reference, this work is a book that all serious
yoga teachers and practitioners will want on their shelves. It will
also be welcomed by sympathetic physicians--and there are more of
us all the time--as well as physical therapists and other health
professionals."
--Timothy
McCall, M. D., author of Examining Your Doctor:
A Patient's Guide to Avoiding Harmful Medical Care
(from the foreword to Anatomy of Hatha Yoga)
"Anatomy of Hatha Yoga will be the bible for yoga instructors
and serious practitioners who are seeking in-depth knowledge explaining
the anatomy and physiology of their discipline. It will be years,
if ever, before anything comes close to surpassing it."
--Michael
J. Alter, author of seven books, including first and
second editions of Science of Flexibility and Sports Stretch
"Anatomy of Hatha Yoga by Dr. David Coulter is a
book that delivers a depth of information about all facets of anatomy
and body movement. The highly detailed and descriptive content is
presented clearly and thoroughly. It is useful information not only
for yoga instructors, but for anyone involved in work with the musculoskeletal
system--physical therapists, bodywork therapists, chiropractors,
personal trainers, and massage therapists. The photos, illustrations
and diagrams are clear and easy to understand. I am privileged to
have known David for the last fifteen years and I know that he has
been working on this book for at least that long, so all of the
information is well seasoned. I recommend it to everyone who lives
in a body and copes with its problems."
--Ohashi, author of seven books, including Do-It-Yourself Shiatsu,
Reading the Body, and The Ohashi Bodywork Book
