The Muscle Book was written when Paul Blakey was working with dance students, and could not find suitable text books. Although originally intended as a manual for dancers, his work is equally useful for those who teach or practise yoga. For each muscle or muscle group Blakey gives a diagram showing the location and attachment, with a description of the muscle and its actions, movements which will be problematic if the muscles are weak, warnings about movements which could cause injury, and suggestions for 'finger first aid,' or pressure points for massage therapy.
