Equitation Science, Second Edition, incorporates learning theory into ethical equine training frameworks suitable for riders of any level and for all types of equestrian activity. 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. 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 use their natural behaviour to train, ride or compete with them in as fair a manner as possible. The welfare consequences of training and competing horses under different protocols are explored. Equitation Science, Second Edition is suitable for undergraduate and postgraduate students on equine science, equine studies or equine behaviour courses. The text is also an invaluable reference for equine veterinarians, equine behaviour counsellors, and of course horse riders and riding instructors.
