The Domestic Horse
Humans have had a profound influence on the horse since its domestication in the late Neolithic period. Used for transport, labour, food and recreation, horses have become important in many facets of our society. Daniel Mills and Sue McDonnell have produced an exceptional account of our current knowledge of the development and management of the behaviour of the horse, from its wild roots. The Domestic Horse, first published in 2005, brings together, for the first time, an unrivalled collection of international scientific authors to write on the latest findings concerning the behaviour and welfare of this beautiful animal. Illustrated throughout, The Domestic Horse will appeal to animal scientists, those working with horses in a professional capacity and the owner/enthusiast. It also provides sound complementary reading for animal/equine science courses and veterinary students.

Herdmates to Heartmates: The Art of Bonding with a New Horse
Everyone who has ever imagined owning a horse has experienced an "equestrian dream" of their own. They have pictured finding the perfect, beautiful animal, who would become their partner, anticipating their every request, enabling their rider to approach centaur status. However, what many people discover once they have selected and brought a horse home is that they are a long way from understanding what makes their new horse tick, let alone being able to form the kind of bond that would lead to a safe and enjoyable riding experience. In the words of foundational horseman Ray Hunt, “Horses don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.” In other words, you could have an...
Thoroughbred Horse Handicapping and Wagering
Thoroughbred Horse Handicapping and wagering using the Holy Bible of Horse Racing is a book that contains a primer for folks that do not know much about thoroughbred horse racing. In addition, it provides a methodology for picking horses that will most likely finish second or better in races that are qualified for wagering. It then describes different approaches to wagering. There are what I call another section which I call special conditions that prompt special attention and will provide an avenue for Win/Place/Show bets (across the board), as well as some short stories of the some of the real characters I have met while playing the ponies.
