DESCRIPTION:
"Very helpful" according to M. Weston. As I am studying Ayurveda via a distance learning course. Ayurveda uses many Sanskrit words and having not been exposed to the Sanskrit language first hand I had no idea what the words sounded like or how they are pronounced.The Language of Ayurveda is very helpful with learning the pronunciation of the many Sanskrit words used in the course.. Content 5 stars, book printing 1 star IsaBear Content 5 stars, PRINTING One.Note: I have edited this review and changed my star rating after being contacted by the author. This was not a pirated copy but is indeed an original. The printer for this book is not the same as his Language of Yoga and while this is an important work the printing IS poor and caused me personally considerable eye strain to try to read it.My original review is below.~~~~~~~
