Book Reviews of Sensational Knowledge: Embodying Culture through Japanese Dance (Music Culture)

Book Review: Written with Japanese mind-set?
Summary: 3 Stars

A valuable and informative effort by Hahn; indisputably, I suggest. However, her manner of writing is (to me) not as succinct as it should be for an academic work, where information needs to be presented for ease of extraction.
Abovesaid, this book is worth the 'read'.
