"A few minutes scanning through this book quickly brings to our attention aspects of equine communication that we have misunderstood or just not known about. Not only does the book go into what horses are putting out to us in considerable, and considered, detail but also it describes how we can effectively and appropriately communicate with them. It stresses the hyper-sensitive nature of horses and the importance of keeping them calm, and of calming them down when, as inevitably happens sometimes, they become upset. This book has obviously been a labour of love and one that brings to the subjects of equine behaviour and management a whole new and vitally important perspective. It is fascinating, instructive, thought-provoking and heart-warming, and entirely in line with Tracking-up 's own values." Sunsan McBane in tracking-up magazine, May 2022
