«Kinesiology Taping for Horses is written clearly yet is still rich in detail; I read it cover-to-cover in a single sitting and have a new respect for kinesiology taping without feeling bogged down by minutae.»
«A comprehensive guide to this unique modality.... A book like this needs plenty of good photos to illustrate the techniques, and the author delivers.»
