In the spirit of An Immense World and Soul of an Octopus, a leading neuroscientist and veteran horse trainer illuminates the mysteries of equine cognition and behavior, told through the story of her own extraordinary bond with a 1,500-pound horse named True North.
The bond between horses and humans is the stuff of legend. Two different beings, two different bodies and brains, yet energy sparks between them. When that energy is captured, it can produce a special union that no other prey and predator species share.
A Horse’s World is the first book to illuminate the fascinating science of how horses think, feel, learn, and bond with their human companions. Tracing the story of a 1500-pound Dutch Warmblood named True North as he learns how to negotiate the human world, neuroscientist, veteran horse trainer, and former professional rider Janet Jones reveals surprising lessons about cross-species learning and communication, evidence of an astounding memory, and scientific insight into the miracle of the horse-human connection.
Horses have so much to teach us about confidence, courage, humility, compassion. Whether you're an experienced rider or simply admire equine beauty and grace from afar, A Horse's World is both a revealing window into horses' hearts and minds, and an object lesson in how to build mutual trust with those whose internal worlds differ from our own.
