Anatomy in Action – THE BOOK

Anatomy in Action is a large, striking, fold-out catalogue of anatomical movements. Evaluating paces from walk to gallop, poles to drop fences and lateral work to specialist moves such as the sliding western halt, pesade and capriole, the book consists of 143 pages of compelling skeletal photographic sequences 28 of which are fold-out pages designed to best showcase the magnificent photographs. Concise explanations describing each movement make this book a treasure trove of biomechanical insights for the amateur and professional alike.

Building on Gillian’s earlier publications, this stunning book, which is a piece of artwork in its own right, is of interest to trainers, coaches, therapists, riders from all disciplines, vets, students and others with a fascination for anatomy, biomechanics and how the horse moves.
