This significantly revised and updated work combines the best features of Laws's widely acclaimed The Physics of Dance and Physics, Dance, and the Pas de Deux by Laws and Cynthia Harvey. This innovative book applies the basic principles of physics to the art of dance, opening a new level of appreciation for lovers of the form. Written by a physicist with professional dance training, the book explains how dancers can achieve better, safer performances through an understanding of physics in motion. Using simple, non-technical terms, Laws combines his knowledge of the two disciplines to describe how the laws of gravity, momentum, and energy affect dancing bodies. Original stop-action photographs by Martha Swope complement the text.
