Synopsis

After more than 20 years in print, an updated edition of the evocative and transformational classic about the powerful bond between women and horses

When writer and equine-facilitated therapy and experiential learning practitioner Linda Kohanov wrote the first edition of The Tao of Equus over twenty years ago, she posed questions that few were asking: Do horses make choices? How do they seem to know what people are thinking and feeling? Are horses spiritual beings? What do they have to teach people? Why are women so attracted to horses? The answers, detailed in an extraordinary chronicle that synthesized science, behavioral research, firsthand anecdotes, and personal insight, transformed how we think about one of humanity's oldest companions and established Kohanov at the vanguard of the emerging field of animal-assisted learning/therapy. <p/> Two decades later, she returns to this classic text to deliver an updated edition, weaving new developments in neurological science and scholarship into her original exploration of spiritual awakening, cultural history, and mythology. The Tao of Equus delves into the mental and spiritual processes behind the magical connections that people often experience with horses. It remains a powerful exploration of the feminine wisdom horses model, subtleties that women riders have intuited for centuries. <p/>
