Customer Reviews: Useless horse anatomy January 28, 2007 Horse Therapist (USA) 8 out of 10 found this review helpful
I am a Licensed Massage therapist for humans. I am trying to use my human therapy knowledge to include horses. I wanted to study anatomy and physiology of horses to make the transition smoother.
I bought this book to further my understanding of equine anatomy.
This book is a joke. Not only does it not help anyone interested in knowing the correct medical terms for structures in the body. She tries to stay away from technical medical expressions whenever possible.
Like calling the tuberosity of the ischium the "seat bone". And the femur as the upper thigh bone. With the condyle of the femur labeled as the "femur."
So the I don't agree with the easy to understand and comprehensive statement on the front of the book.
I thought it would be a quick reference quide. I was wrong. So if you're looking for something comprehensive. I would look elsewhere.
