Format:Paperback
This is a basic introduction to various yoga paths (hatha yoga, jnana yoga, karma yoga, etc.). I would not call it "comprehensive" or a "guide to daily life." Rather, it's an anthology of Yoga Journal articles that are fine, but more valuable for the beginner.

Format:Paperback
This book basically is a collection of articles and writings that were published in Yoga Journal, and written by other people that are well respected figures in the Yoga lifestyle. It explains the history and traditions of Yoga, different schools of thought and practice. It is very general, and touches on many different topics, but does not go into much depth about anything, which makes it very easy to read for the beginner of Yoga to get a broad introduction of what's out there, and what it is.
