GEORG FEUERSTEIN, PhD, (1947-2012) was internationally respected for his work on Yoga and authored of over fifty books. He designed and taught several distance-learning courses on Yoga philosophy for Traditional Yoga Studies. His widow, BRENDA FEUERSTEIN, is a Yoga teacher and the director of Traditional Yoga Studies. She is the coauthor, also with Georg, of Green Yoga and Green Dharma.
"Dr. Feuerstein's new rendering is perhaps the most complete
version of the more than one hundred English translations of the
Gita to come our way in the last two-and-a-quarter centuries. This
is a work for both scholars and serious laypersons, destined, I
believe, to become the standard text for Yoga training programs in
the English-speaking world."—Richard Rosen, author of The Yoga of
Breath and Pranayama beyond the Fundamentals
"A Bhagavad-Gītā like no other! Never have its language and culture
been so vividly etched, not only by the unrivaled precision of
Feuerstein's renderings, but also in a trove of companion materials
unprecedented for their breadth and depth. There's something here
for everyone, from seeker to scholar to seer."—Chip Hartranft,
translator of The Yoga-Sūtra of Patañjali
"What makes the Feuersteins' translation unique? It is packed with
scholarly essays that help students understand the Gita's
historical and cultural context and its historical worldview before
they read the text. Rich with footnotes and containing a helpful
glossary, this book will serve serious yoga students and ambitious
beginners alike."—Yoga Journal
