Reading the Horse's Mind

This book is ideal for those wanting to know more about 'natural horsemanship'.It covers ideas and inserts from all the leading specialists in this field: Monty Roberts, Linda Tellington Jones, and also leading sportspeople: Mary King, Carl Hester, Karen O'Connor, David Broome, Susan Hutchinson, Sylvia Logh and Marcy Parvord.THe only reason it hasnt got 5 Stars is that I would have liked a little more about how to overcome specific problems rather than the general allround insight it gives you.However I now know that I am interested enough to go and buy an other book that will cover different training problems in depth. This book has given me the grounding in horse behaviour and his mind. I think it is an interesting read and one to have on the shelf in the home rather than leaving it at the shop. The main topics it covers are: Evolution of the horse, The horses world, Patterns for living, How do horses Learn, How intelligent are horses, The mind in training, Setting up for success.
