If horses were intelligent, they would probably not let us ride them. In The
Behaviour of Horses in Relation to Management and Training (J. A. Allen,
£10.95, ISBN 0 85131 397 3) Marthe Kiley-Worthington mixes scientific fact
with original thinking to provide an insight into the equine mind. Fascinating
reading for anyone who has anything to do with horses, or for would-be horse
whisperers.
