Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. From Publishers Weekly A performer, teacher and scholar, Hobin is a British authority on the art of belly dancing, and her new volume is a work of serious dance history, not of titillation or instruction (though one chapter on basic belly dancing movements is included).
