Even as humanity reels beneath the assault of AIDS, epidemiologists are gearing themselves up for the plague's successor. It might be dengue fever, whose carrier, the Asian tiger mosquito, has recently appeared in the United States, or Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, which has been transmitted by contaminated human growth hormone. The next pandemic might be caused by any of a dozen viruses that were once confined to other species or territories but now place human beings at risk as we increasingly cross their boundaries. Updated to include the latest research and developments, this fascinating and sometimes unsetting book sums up all that we currently know about viruses: what they are, how they spread, and how scientists are trying to outwit them. Interweaving theory and real-life medical drama, A Dancing Matrix is science reportage at its most suspenseful and informative.

Concentrating on the Caribbean Basin and the coastal area of northeast South America, Yvonne Daniel considers three African-derived religious systems that rely heavily on dance behavior--Haitian Vodou, Cuban Yoruba, and Bahamian Candomblé. Combining her background in dance and anthropology to parallel the participant/scholar dichotomy inherent to dancing's "embodied knowledge," Daniel examines these misunderstood and oppressed performative dances in terms of physiology, psychology, philosophy, mathematics, ethics, and aesthetics. "Dancing Wisdom offers the rare opportunity to see into the world of mystical spiritual belief as articulated and manifested in ritual by dance. Whether it is a Cuban Yoruba dance ritual, slave Ring Shout or contemporary Pentecostal Holy Ghost possession dancing shout, we are able to understand the relationship with spirit through dancing with the Divine. Yvonne Daniel's work synthesizes the cognitive empirical objectivity of an anthropologist with the passionate storytelling of a poetic artist in articulating how dance becomes prayer in ritual for Africans of the Diaspora." --Leon T. Burrows, Protestant Chaplain, Smith College'

Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Mauricio Castro is the founder of Tango Discovery and [is] a renowned dancer and teacher of Argentine Tango. He created and developed a personal style of dancing and teaching tango in Buenos Aires and then, through Tango Discovery, he brought it to the rest of the world. To his solid musical education at the prestigious Berklee College of Music (Boston, USA), he added contemporary dance and movement technique studies (Laban Analysis, Bartenieff Fundamentals, and The Skinner Releasing Technique, among others). In addition, he also studied Human Sciences in Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Design Human Engineering, and Human Ecology. The joining of these disciplines and influences allowed him to create his particular and unmistakable style, systematizing it into an innovative method to accelerate the process of learning to dance. Breaking out from rigid sequences, his focus is to develop improvisation skills through a simple and dynamic technique where students discover not only a relaxed and released style but also a new way of expressing and communicating with their bodies. The synthesis of his method, recognized worldwide by hundreds of dancers, used to be available not only by attending his classes but also in his books and (back then - we are talking the year 2000) cutting-edge multimedia CD-ROMs. They used to be available in several languages. From the beginning, Castro insists that the tango is and should be for anyone, as it is something so pleasurable and common like breathing. "Repeating random exercises won't get you anywhere. The proof is that there are people out there, that have been trying to dance tango for years and they still can't, they still believe that is a difficult dance. I have found a NEW way of teaching and learning far better to whatever you have been doing." - Mauricio Castro This book must be taken as a sort of beginning and inspiration to generate movement. It must be used to awaken and increase our curiosity in relation to dance, producing new possibilities of movement and, therefore, new forms to express ourselves and enjoy our bodies. This material can be used for doing exactly the opposite, too. That is why it is everyone's responsibility for paying attention to how you are practicing.

Dancing Women: Choreographing Corporeal Histories of Hindi Cinema, an ambitious study of two of South Asia's most popular cultural forms cinema and dance historicizes and theorizes the material and cultural production of film dance, a staple attraction of popular Hindi cinema. It explores how the dynamic figurations of the body wrought by cinematic dance forms from the 1930s to the 1990s produce unique constructions of gender, sexuality, stardom, and spectacle. By charting discursive shifts through figurations of dancer-actresses, their publicly performed movements, private training, and the cinematic and extra-diegetic narratives woven around their dancing bodies, the book considers the "women's question" via new mobilities corpo-realized by dancing women. Some of the central figures animating this corporeal history are Azurie, Sadhona Bose, Vyjayanthimala, Helen, Waheeda Rehman, Madhuri Dixit, and Saroj Khan, whose performance histories fold and intersect with those of other dancing women, including devadasis and tawaifs, Eurasian actresses, oriental dancers, vamps, choreographers, and backup dancers. Through a material history of the labor of producing on-screen dance, theoretical frameworks that emphasize collaboration, such as the "choreomusicking body" and "dance musicalization," aesthetic approaches to embodiment drawing on treatises like the Natya Sastra and the Abhinaya Darpana, and formal analyses of cine-choreographic "techno-spectacles," Dancing Women offers a variegated, textured history of cinema, dance, and music. Tracing the gestural genealogies of film dance produces a very different narrative of Bombay cinema, and indeed of South Asian cultural modernities, by way of a corporeal history co-choreographed by a network of remarkable dancing women.

Reader, you may wonder: Is this a science fiction story with human clones? Or is this a spiritual novel related to God? It is both. Two ETs come to Earth, for a vacation. They analyze and they worry about what is happening on our planet. They don't understand why the elite control the lives of people. They don't comprehend why ordinary Humans so feebly react to that. But the beginning of the 21st century was a time of Great Awakening. The pivotal moment was the subtle split of Earth's magnetic field. It allowed the creation of two densities, two worlds. Follow the thrilling events that lead to that moment. Read the story of people who softly act and change their worldview. Read about Humans as spiritual beings in a material world. Those two ETs teach them to have a dialogue with the Divine Self Within. They help Humans to be aware, like themselves, of being clones of God. Then they can be empowered and change the world for good. With those two ETs and enlightened Humans, embark on this odyssey!

This book traces the development of hammering techniques in Greek, Roman and related (e.g. Graeco-Scythian) jewellery and toreutics based on the analysis of ancient tools used for manufacture of hammered metalwork, primarily punches and matrices with figural designs, and actual finds of metalwork and jewellery. The book offers essays on metalworkers' tools from Mycenean Greece until the Late Roman Period. It includes chapters on different categories of hammered metalwork in the corresponding periods and Excursus about particular matrices or punches and hoards of toreutics. Bringing together the tools of metalworkers and actual objects manufactured with them opens new perspectives on chronological and cultural attribution of ancient jewellery and toreutics and illuminates the role of mass production and artistic creativity in ancient history. The book is illustrated with 133 photographs.

This road trip is a moving human record, tragic, poignant, and humorous. A true account, which follows an attempt to cope with changing culture where everything is being short-circuited. While appearing to be a simple tale there is hidden sophistication. It is a story of the first magnitude. The narrative swepts through history with camouflaged complexity. In places it is a dreadful miasama, filled with anger, bitterness and pain, from the physicist explanation of where humanity fits into the scheme of things, to the small Japanese child who ask repeatedly the strangers fleeing toward the River Plio after the bomb fell, “why is it dark again so early in the day.” Exploring the intersection between science, religion and culture, the reader is forced to think deeply as it interrupts the long communion of our own desires when we cannot refuse to accept some of its insights. With candor the tale takes one through the five stages of grief moving back and forth in time in a no holds barred fashion, told by the very people who lived it. Brace yourself for their passage into trouble is brutal and stark. The tribe is the remnants of a long line (the long column) of English Knights. Their solutions melt into a gripping tale that flows like a river into the heart of every person who has a family for every family has a tribe around it. A special touch of this tour de force is the haunting undercurrent of a search for love among ruins. P.S. The Tribe can be more fully understood as a part of a trilogy. The Life and Crimes of Bug Tussle is the second part. The trilogy was withdrawn in consideration for Angus Deatons after he was nominated for a Nobel prize for his work in economics.
