Beautiful illustrations (although I found the flesh-toned bodysuits kind of creepy at times), and very useful diagrams of technique. A lot of this book is for advanced dancers but even beginners like me can benefit from how to hold the barre properly, correct foot and body positioning in each position, etc.
This book was very useful when I was translating a book with ballet terminology: the descriptions are clear and there are lots of photos.
A very useful manual of tecnhique. Detailed instructions for execution of steps, including variations (e.g. soviet style).
