The first version of this standard textbook on the bones, surfaces, movement and conformation of the horse was prepared by R.H. Smythe MRCVS and published in 1967. It was revised and expanded in 1972 by DR P.C. Goody, B.Sc., Ph.D., who provided a wide new base of anatomical information valuable to anyone wishing to study the horse in detail.
Twenty years later, Peter Gray MVB, MRCVS, has completely revised and updated the work, bringing a clinical viewpoint to the existing text, and by combining the knowledge of structural characteristics with the known stresses caused by diverse factors such as concussion and conformation, and an examination of spinal dynamics and muscular injuries, enables the reader to understand more easily how and why lameness occures. The result is a work which will be of inestimable benefit to a new generation of students and horse owners.
