**Volume 17. The Yoga-system of Patañjali**, or the ancient Hindu doctrine of concentration of mind: embracing the Mnemonic Rules (Yoga-sūtras) of Patañjali, the Comment (Bhāshya) attributed to Vyāsa, and the Explanation (Tattva-vāiçāradī) of Vāchaspati-Miçra: translated from the original Sanskrit by JAMES HAUGHTON WOODS, Professor of Philosophy at Harvard University. 1914. Pages, 422. Royal 8°. Price $5. The Comment is the oldest systematic exposition of Yoga-doctrine, written in Sanskrit, that we possess. Although the book consists of three separate works, these are so distinguished, one from another, by differences of type and other devices, that the general impression is one of admirable clearness.
