Title: If you can't trust the writer, don't buy the book
Review: I bought this book when it first came out in 1999. Soon afterwards, I attended an expensive, 3-hour "workshop" taught by Mr. Kraftsow in Boston. I was quite excited to attend the workshop, as I was interested in learning more about his yoga practice, but found the book too poorly written to translate into practice.Problem was, Mr. Kraftsow treated his workshop as just another book promotion opportunity and talked about himself and his book for more than 2.5 hours, leaving less than a half hour for actual yoga practice. Even worse, he insulted people from different geographic areas and suggested that many yoga practitioners were miserable because they didn't eat enough sugar!When I got home from his workshop, I threw his book away. If an author is that untrustworthy, I don't want to follow his yoga either.
