An excellent book, though I do have reservations with recommending it. Kit and friends show a great many excellent stretches. However, these stretches and partner stretching exercises undertaken by beginners can lead to way overdoing things. So, my recommendations are, take it very slowly and listen to your body.

This book seems quite outdated. Would not recommend to yoga students or instructors.

I got this book hoping it would teach me some additional stretches while motivating me to do more than I currently do. I got neither from the book.
