"The Dance of Life - The Other Dimension of Time" by Edward T. Hall was an enjoyable read. A basic and fundamental look at who we are and how we think as an individual is a result of the culture we exist in - specifically focusing on understanding our perceptions of time - and the far reaching effect these entail. Hall provided numerous intriguing and thought provoking observations, many of paralleled my own experiences. Considering the 40 years since its publication, some of the content is a bit dated, with the biggest impact being, how technology and the Internet-age have altered some of Hall's observations. I also pondered how much some of the observations regarding gender/work roles have likely evolved. [4/5]
