A sound knowledge of equine physiology is essential if you are to care for your horse effectively but it is not always easy to understand. "The Equine Body" makes the subject easier to absorb by the innovative use of full colour, easy-to-assemble three-dimensional and moveable models and illustrations. These allow the student to experience the intricate workings of the horse's structure and internal systems: the muscles contract, the limbs move, the heart beats and the lungs expand and contract. Clear, practical text complements the detailed illustrations. This innovative and fascinating project book is an essential educational workbook for students and is also invaluable for the horse owner wishing to gain a fuller understanding of how the horse's body actually works.
