Written by international experts at the forefront of the development of the field, the welfare of the horse and rider safety are primary considerations throughout. <p> This second edition reflects the most recent advances in the discipline, and features a new chapter on research methods. Drawing together the principles of this emerging field, discussion centres around how horses think and learn, before exploring how to train, ride or compete with them in as fair a manner as possible and in ways that acknowledge their natural behaviour. The welfare consequences of training and competing horses under different protocols are explored. <p> <em>Equitation Science, Second Edition</em> is suitable for undergraduate and postgraduate students of equine science, equine studies or equine behaviour. The text is also an invaluable reference for equine veterinarians, equine behaviour counsellors and, of course, horse riders and riding instructors.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p> <strong>About the authors<br> Paul McGreevy</strong> is a Professor of Animal Behaviour and Animal Welfare Science at the Sydney School of Veterinary Science, University of Sydney, Australia. <p> <strong>Janne Winther Christensen</strong> is an Associate Professor at the Department of Animal Science, Aarhus University, Denmark. <p> <strong>Uta König von Borstel</strong> is a Professor of Animal Husbandry and Biology at the Department of Animal Breeding and Genetics, University of Giessen, Germany. <p> <strong>Andrew McLean</strong> is one of the world's foremost equine behavioural practitioners and founder of the Australian Equine Behaviour Centre, Australia.
