Recenzii

“Expecting a dry textbook full of confusing diagrams and vocabulary I’d never understand, I was pleasantly surprised to find an interesting, readable book full of practical information and exercises. … A must for riders who want to understand their horses from the inside out.”—American Cowboy

“Congratulations to the authors for compiling a book that is both interesting to read and relevant to current training practices. The information herein will be useful for analysing, interpreting and improving the performance of our equine athletes.”—Prof. Hilary M. Clayton, BVMS, PhD, Dipl ACVSMR, MRCVS

“Williams conveys complex information in an easy-to-understand manner. Her tone is conversational and compelling. Most of all, she eloquently expresses her care and concern for the horse, and that makes her book a most worthwhile read.”—Practical Horseman
