This is NOT the Alister Shearer Translation:
I don't know how they did it, but they got the reviews for the awesome Alistair Shearer translation of the Yoga Sutras, to show up for this kindle version, and even a link from the original Alistair translation, so you come to this page if you want the kindle version, and all the nice reviews for the Alistair version show up for this book. THIS IS NOT THE ALISTAIR TRANSLATION. And I highly resent being led to believe so, because I was really excited about getting that version for my kindle.

Perfect Condition, quick and efficient!!:
This book was in perfect condition, came to me quickly and was very well done by amazon. Thanks.
Fabulous:
You can tell from the very beginning that this translation was done by someone who personally understands the meaning of the sutras. And the introduction itself is worth the price of the book -- it's a perfect primer for anyone wanting to learn more about the mysterious path to the Divine.
Pocket Book for the Yoga Sutras:
I've read the Yoga Sutras of Patajali by Sri Swami Satchidananda and found that book to be a much more detailed description of sutras. This book is very brief, which may a good introduction but I've found it to be much less useful. If you are looking for a deep understanding of the sutras, I'd recommend a book with more content.
