Hardcover is burgundy with silver lettering on spine. DJ in a mylar cover. Pages are clean and tight; appears as if unused. Sewn book. Grey endpapers. Extensively illustrated with dozens of color and b/w photographs and drawings and diagrams. Originally published in German in 2006 as 'Finger in der Wunde' ; translated by Reina Abelshauser. "As a practicing equine veterinarian, Dr. Heuschmann--an internationally recognized authority on issues of equine health in dressage competition, including "hyperflexion" (previously referred to as 'Rollkur') --is faced daily with the debilitating, and sometimes career-ending consequences of incorrect training methods.openly confronts developments in dressage--as a sport and a recreational pastime--that he asserts have deviated from the classical training principles conscientiously developed over the centuries of careful analysis and masterful riding by the world's greatest horsemen." This is very much an on-going debate, and hot button topic in the dressage world today. Xenophon had it right 2500 years ago; why would we do anything against our horse's nature and well being? Has even been the sujbect of international conferences and research. Sections are: Who's Responsible for Today's Training Problems? ; Riding According to Classical Principles: What Does It Mean? ; Basic Equine Anatomy; Functional Connections--and Their Importance in Correct Training; Correct Physiological Training; Training from a Veterinary Point of View; Conclusions; bibliography and recommended reading and web sites; index. A highly valued title in my personal collection. ; B&W and Color Illustrations; 7 x 9 1/2; 144 pages.
