In over 350 colour photos & illustrations, Higgins use her signature technique of painting internal diagrams directly on to the bodies of living horses, to great effect. Horse Anatomy for Performance builds upon the success of her 2010 book, How Your Horse Moves, to examine the anatomy of 11 systems of the horse. It is with careful & clear detail that Higgins shows just how anatomy influences the way we manage, ride & train our horses. As a sports & remedial therapist for both horses & humans & a lecturer in anatomy & biomechanics, Gillian Higgins is recognised internationally for her ‘ Horses Inside Out’ artworks & public demonstrations. She’s given talks to equestrian audiences from throughout the UK & around the world, receiving endorsements from high profile riders, equestrian legends the & academics including Richard Davison, Laura & Dr. Wilfred Bechtolsheimer & Christopher Bartle. Speaking of the new book, Higgins said ‘I hope that the book will serve as a vital resource to anyone interested in keeping a happy & healthy horse. As well as being of interest to therapists, students, & trainers, I am confident that Horse Anatomy for Performance will make a great read for all horse enthusiasts.’
