The popularity of yoga and Zen meditation has heightened awareness
of somatic practices. Individuals develop the conscious embodiment
central to somatics work via movement and dance, or through touch
from a skilled teacher or therapist often called a somatic
bodyworker. Methods of touch and movement foster generative
processes of consciousness in order to create a fluid
interconnection between sensation, thought, movement, and
expression. In Moving Consciously , Sondra Fraleigh gathers essays
that probe ideas surrounding embodied knowledge and the conscious
embodiment of movement and dance. Using a variety of perspectives
on movement and dance somatics, Fraleigh and other contributors
draw on scholarship and personal practice to participate in a
multifaceted investigation of a thriving worldwide phenomenon.
Their goal: to present the mental and physical health benefits of
experiencing one's inner world through sensory awareness and
movement integration. A stimulating addition to a burgeoning field,
Moving Consciously incorporates concepts from East and West into a
timely look at life-changing, intertwined practices that involve
dance, movement, performance studies, and education. Contributors:
Richard Biehl, Robert Bingham, Hillel Braude, Alison East, Sondra
Fraleigh, Kelly Ferris Lester, Karin Rugman, Catherine Schaeffer,
Jeanne Schul, and Ruth Way.

From the highly acclaimed author of Pure Slaughter Value comes this latter-day literary noir about an ex-pat in Cambodia eager to get home but taking all the wrong turns.
Asher went to Cambodia to get away from Julie, his Harvard grad ex-girlfriend currently tending bar in a topless joint in New York. But when his UNESCO work cleaning bat dung from Khmer statues is finished, and he decides on a dicey heroin scheme as his means to get home with plenty of money to spare, it?s Julie whose help he solicits. She agrees, but plans go dangerously awry frighteningly fast. A pulsating plot and precise literary prose make Lightning on the Sun a startlingly compelling and strangely poetic tale.
In Back to the Dance Itself, Sondra Fraleigh edits essays that
illuminate how scholars apply a range of phenomenologies to explore
questions of dance and the world; performing life and language;
body and place; and self-knowing in performance. Some authors delve
into theoretical perspectives, while others relate personal
experiences and reflections that reveal fascinating insights
arising from practice. Collectively, authors give particular
consideration to the interactive lifeworld of making and doing that
motivates performance. Their texts and photographs study body and
the environing world through points of convergence, as correlates
in elemental and constant interchange modeled vividly in dance.
Selected essays on eco-phenomenology and feminism extend this view
to the importance of connections with, and caring for, all life.
Contributors: Karen Barbour, Christine Bellerose, Robert Bingham,
Kara Bond, Hillel Braude, Sondra Fraleigh, Kimerer LaMothe, Joanna
McNamara, Vida Midgelow, Ami Shulman, and Amanda Williamson.
