The Science of Equestrian Sports*

Theory, Practice and Performance of the Equestrian Rider
The Science of Equestrian Sports is a comprehensive study of the theory and practice of the equestrian rider in sport.

It provides valuable insight into improving sporting performance and maintaining the safety of both the horse and the rider.
