White brings to life the improbable cast of characters whose interpretations-and misappropriations-of the yoga sutra led to its revered place in popular culture todayfirst introduced to the west by the british orientalist henry thomas colebrooke, the yoga sutra was revived largely in europe and america, and predominantly in englishvirtually forgotten in india for hundreds of years and maligned when it was first discovered in the west, the yoga sutra has been elevated to its present iconic status-and translated into more than forty languages-only in the course of the past forty yearsoxfam bookshop cotham hill first edition grey boards and spine with gilt embossed title to spine light shelf-wear to corners and top and bottom of spine but otherwise clean small marks to dust cover which is not price-clipped light bumps to edges of cover rough-cut pages are clean and bright with no marks, creases, or tears book and spine are bright and tight previous owner's pencil commentary to front end flap ("far outshines any since") consisting of fewer than two hundred verses written in an obscure if not impenetrable language and style, patanjali's yoga sutra is today extolled by the yoga establishment as a perennial classic and guide to yoga practiceas david gordon white demonstrates in this groundbreaking study, both of these assumptions are incorrectwhite retraces the strange and circuitous journey of this confounding work from its ancient origins down through its heyday in the seventh through eleventh centuries, its gradual fall into obscurity, and its modern resurgence since the nineteenth centurysee oxfam website for delivery information read moretracing the remarkable trajectory of this enigmatic work, white's exhaustively researched book also demonstrates why the yoga of india's past bears little resemblance to the yoga practiced today
