Understanding the flexibility and limits of behaviour is essential to improving both the horse's welfare and its performance. This book tackles the fundamental principles which will enable owners, riders, trainers and students to understand scientific principles and apply them in practice. Subjects covered include the analysis of influences on equine behaviour, the perceptual world of the horse, learning and training techniques including the latest developments in "join-up" and "imprint training".

Dr Daniel Mills is Principal Lecturer in Animal Behaviour Studies and Animal Welfare, at the Department of Biological Sciences, University of Lincoln.
