Equus

Monumental yet accessible

Deb Bennett, PhD, has been a columnist and consulting editor at EQUUS for more than three decades. During that time, she has helped thousands of readers better understand their horses from the skeleton out—what makes them work and how humans can best partner with them. Her education and experience—both academic and hands on with the horses and horse people around the world—make her uniquely qualified for the task. Check out her bio on her website www.equinestudies.org and prepare to be amazed. Of course, if you’ve read her articles in EQUUS over the years, I’m just “preaching to the choir.”

But what you may not know is that “Dr. Deb” has put her vast knowledge into an incredible 894-page, three-volume work Available in print or digital form, it’s loaded with 400 photos and countless drawings and charts to illustrate the text, which is plain language—or as plain as you can get when dealing with some pretty complex topics.
