These are the Yogi Publication Society books specifically themed around Yoga, authored by William Atkinson under a variety of pseudonyms.
The Book talks on the internal world of the self. The real nature of the subconscious mind, the way to control it, how ego comes into play and most frequently asked questions like "Who am I" are attempted to answer.
Raja Yoga is about using techniques such as meditation, retention of breath, and concentration to achieve the ultimate goal of absorption into the cosmos. However, like most of the Yogi Publications books written and published by William Walker Atkinson under a pseudonym, this is basically a New Thought tract. Apparently this was originally a correspondence course in mental focus, which he repurposed under one of his Hindu pseudonyms to fill in the Raja Yoga slot in the YPS lineup.
