  Each title in The Arts series examines a creative, non-scientific branch of human knowledge, and aims to encourage readers to find out more about the arts for themselves. In this volume, the author discusses the origins of dance and examines the dance traditions of many different countries and cultures worldwide. There are sections on social dance - from medieval courts to modern discos - and there is also information on creating and recording a dance, the career prospects of becoming a dancer, and details about different forms of dance, where to see it and where to take part in it.
