Excellent Update July 20, 2009
Heather Greaves (Gainesville, FL United States)
This is an excellent update to the previous edition and a good substitute during the long awaited update of McKinnon and Voss's "Equine Reproduction". Although it does not go deeply into the research, it has ample references for those who wish to get more information. I highly recommend it as a reference for all equine reproductive clinicians and technicians.

This book is a must for any owner or manager of an equine breeding facility. It is technical, but relatively easy to read and complete. Whether you're an expert whose been in the business for years or a novice just getting started, this is the primer you've been looking for. It's one you'll want to keep handy for looking up answers to new questions or reviewing the answers to your old ones. Kudos to the author for a job well done. It's worth noting that no matter what breed of horses you work with, you will still find this reference invaluable.
