Unique in its focus on history rather than technique, Jazz Dance offers the only overview of trends and developments since 1960.

Featuring discussions of such dancers and choreographers as Bob Fosse and Katherine Dunham, as well as analyses of how the form's vocabularly differs from ballet, this complex and compelling history captures the very essence of jazz dance.
