The Drummer's Path : Moving the Spirit With Ritual and Traditional Drumming   by Sule Greg Wilson
( Inner Traditions Intl Ltd, August 1992, 140 Pages, Paperback )
   Amazon Reviewer "As someone learning to play drums and interested in African rhythms, I must say that this book was quite a let down. It offers very little useful information on drumming itself, and the ideas it does offer (the 12 principles) are expressed in uninteresting ways, lacking in subtlety. If you're interested in a book that offers insight into the meaning of African drumming, avoid this book and look to John Chernoff's African Rhythm and African Sensibility."

The Forgotten Power of Rhythm/CD : Taketina (CD Supplement)   by Reinhard Flatischler
( Liferhythm, July 1,1992, ? Pages, Calendar, Paperback &Audio Cassette )
  To many musicians, rhythm is something that is done by the hands and/or feet, representing mathematical divisions. But as Reinhard Flatischler makes clear in this engrossing study, rhythm is an internal force that exists in the foundations of life (breathing and heartbeat) and is best experienced through movement and vocal sounds. One quickly discovers that being able to feel rhythm through the entire body gives musical performance (especially drumming) a great deal of conviction. The book combines historical and cultural information about rhythm with exercises designed to make one more aware of rhythmic pulse land subdivison.
