While there are several intelligent readers available on dance, their emphasis is either more journalistic (as in Robert Gottlieb's Reading Dance [2008]) or academic and European (as in André Lepecki's Dance [2012]). This new series of books takes into account the wealth of superb critical writing about dance of the past fifty years and evaluates the developments of new dance worlds (New York's 'downtown' scene; the French 'conceptualists') in the wake of modern and postmodern dance.
