Trade Review
A wonderful collage of enquiries and a remarkable view into the discourses of dance history and dance ethnography. - Mohd Anis Md Nor, University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur ""Dancing from Past to Present stands alone as an entry to dance and ethnographic studies. An exemplary offering of interdisciplinary scholarship that deserves attention from historians and practitioners."" - Thomas DeFrantz, editor of Dancing Many Drums
