一般注記 | Simultaneously published in the United Kingdom: London : Ivy Press, an imprint of The Quarto Group "This book was conceived, designed, and produced by Ivy Press"--Title page verso Summary: A comprehensive, richly illustrated introduction to the fascinating natural history of the horse, from prehistory to the present. There are countless books about keeping and riding horses. The Horse is different: it looks not only at the natural history of the horse in the context of its use by humans, but also at its own, independent story, describing the way horses live, think, and behave both alongside people and on their own. Beautifully designed and illustrated, The Horse provides an engaging and accessible introduction to these beloved animals. Beginning with evolution and development, The Horse tells how horses came into being more than fifty million years ago and were first domesticated more than five thousand years ago, eventually spreading across the globe. Chapters on Anatomy & Biology and Society & Behavior explain equine anatomy and how it has affected the lives and social structure of horses, and outline current scientific thinking on their behavior as individual and herd animals, inclu Includes bibliographical references (pages 218-220) and index |
