A Horse's Life: The Neuroscience of Equine Welfare

A Horse's Life combines real horse case studies with plain-language clinical neuroscience written for everyday horse people. Neuroscientist Dr. Stephen Peters, horseman Mark Rashid, and clinician Crissi McDonald explain what drives horse behavior and how to address it at the source, covering the nervous system roots of common problems like spookiness, resistance under saddle, and difficulty catching. The first book of its kind to bridge clinical equine brain research with practical horsemanship.
