Comment: I am a current Texas resident, who has been dancing for ~18 years.

I decided after getting my 'bread and butter' degree, that I would now pursue my dance degree. I went on the internet, and found some schools whose programs looked fabulous! My friend recommended this book to me, swearing it to be the 'Bible of Dancers'. I even had the book special ordered. Upon arrival, I opened it only to find the schools I had pursued were not listed. On top of that, I had taken some dance classes at the University of Oklahoma, only to find Mr. Jones refers to Ko Yukihiro as a 'she' in the book. I can promise you, as I have taken one of Ko's modern classes, that Ko is a male, not a female.

Texas Woman's University has one of the Top 10 Programs in the nation, both for graduate and undergraduate studies, yet Mr. Jones doesn't even have TWU listed. TWU has several guest artists, and all the faculty have incredible resume's. How well did Mr. Jones do his homework? The University of North Texas; one of the largest Universities in Texas, is not mentioned either.

I was also at a loss when I tried to find an area that would help me write my dance resume'. One would believe that for such a comprehensive, well-written book, surely advice on how to write a good dance resume' would have been included. After all, it tells you about your taxes!

I give this book 3 stars. I hope revisions are in the making.
