A fascinating collection that illuminates women's early work in dance with fresh information and keen insights. - Sandra Noll Hammond, professor emerita and director of dance, University of Hawai'i Women's Work is a welcome addition to the sparse body of scholarly work that concentrates on dance practices and the accomplishments of women before 1800. But this intriguing volume is also replete with thought-provoking discussions that resonate far beyond its early dance time frame, probing issues that are well worthy of discussion within the larger framework of dance history. - Elizabeth Aldrich
