Book excerpt: "The author takes the reader through the theory and practice of mime, starting simply and working up to advanced techniques. The book has six 'flip' sequences along the outer trim of the pages (three photographs to a page), allowing the reader to 'attend' a performance of mime. There are 175 pictures to illustrate the positions, many of them multiple exposure shots to show several related positions at the same time .... Mime is compared in this book with the other performing arts; it is put into historical perspective and, because mime, is nonverbal, the text also considers various aspects of body language and nonverbal expression"--Jacket copy.
