Drawing on his long association with the Alexander brothers, Jones relates the story and development of the Technique. For twenty-five years Jones conducted original scientific research into the Technique using a variety of methods. The most important results are presented and Jones explains some of the underlying mechanisms at work.
It was first published as Body Awareness in Action in 1976.
This new and reset edition contains Jones' outline for a fifteenth chapter plus sketches and observations from his notebook, published here for the first time. In these "Notes on Teaching" Jones summarizes his teaching experiences and sets out principles for good teaching practice. The three appendices contain introductory talks and papers on the Alexander Technique.
"Synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
