Ancient Science of Breathing 1 review
Svara Vijnana
UBSPD, 2001
Excellent and concise treatment on breathing
As expounded in this book, proper breathing is a science. Knowing
how to properly breathe helps us at being more calm, keeping both
the mind and body steady. Breathing control can help us mentally,
physically, and also spiritually. This little book (about 100
pages) even deals with chakras and Kundalini Yoga, as these topics
should be known to understand why breathing is so central in Yoga.

Rahul Dravid: A Biography 1 review
Vedam Jaishankar
UBSPD, 2004
Good book
The book gives a good description of the struggle that Dravid went through before making it big. Unfortunately, the book came out before the tours to Australia and Pakistan, when he raised his game to the next level and became arguably the world's best batsman. I am hoping that a sequel or another book on him will address that!
