From the foreword: "It has been proved by the Yoga Research Institute at Patna that the lowering of blood pressure is easier and more spectacular with yoga than with simple rest and tranquilizers (e.g. Diazepam)."Yoga improves physical, mental, psychic and spiritual health. It makes the physiological reflexes, reactions and responses more alert, sensitive and subtle. It exercises and energizes the various systems of the body. The asanas are so designed that their effects may reach to the very ends of the peripheral nerve tips, even to the tiniest and finest and most slender capillaries, to the vasa nervorum and the vasa vasorum and the nutrient arteries which pierce and ply through the hard bones to supply the marrow, and even to each of the individual cells wherever they may be located in the body."Yoga helps to change the lifestyle of the practitioner.

It deftly portrays the problems involved and cites precise reasons for the inclusion of yoga as an additional and alternative therapeutic measure. The medical and clinical aspects are well covered. The facts are simply and succinctly stated. The steps to be followed are clear."The erudite author has covered the subject exceptionally well. He has rendered yeoman's service to mankind by publishing such a useful and magnificent treatise on health and hygiene pertaining to one of the most common diseases afflicting mankind". 218 pp. …
