There has been a change in how we treat our horses: We no longer 'break' them , we 'gentle' them so they become our partners.
Beginning with equine evolution and domestication, Dr. Miller and Rick Lamb focus on the contributions of such classical horsemen as Xenophon, Pluvinel, nineteenth-century "whisperers, tamers, and professors," and modern masters like the Dorrances, Buck Brannaman, Pat Parelli, John Lyons, and their disciples, and the connection between rodeo and natural horsemanship. The authors describe how the horse's mind works, how horses learn, and how the revolution has used those principles, especially with regard to a training regimen for newborn foals developed by Dr. Miller that produces positive results to last a lifetime. These training methods include new techniques in riding, such as preliminary groundwork and the independent seat, as well as visualization and other aspects of sport psychology, yoga, and allied disciplines. Appendices assess innovations in hoof care, nutrition, and veterinary treatment, including so-called "alternative therapies."

Robert M. Miller, D.V.M., the distinguished equine veterinarian, is the author of several books, including the highly-acclaimed "Imprint Training of the Newborn Foal "and "Most of My Patients Are Animals." He has produced several videos on imprint training of foals, and lectures widely on the subject. He lives in Thousand Oaks, California. Rick Lamb is the producer of the successful syndicated radio program, "The Horse Show." He lives in Phoenix, Arizona.
