Topographic anatomy of a horse

"Topographic anatomy of the horse" contains over 250 separate schemes and drawings, each drawing is numbered and equipped with explanatory inscriptions, additional information that helps their interpretation is given in the text.
The main appearance of the horse is considered using "points" shown from several different angles. The details discuss the bones, muscles, tendons and ligaments that provide anatomical basis for these surface points, while the emphasis is everywhere on those structures that can be seen or felt from the surface of the body.
The components of digestive, respiratory, urinary and sexual systems, as well as nerves and blood vessels are shown on a number of drawings. The structure of the head with an emphasis on the nasal cavity, teeth, larynx and air bags is especially considered. The structure of the limbs, especially the hooves, is also illustrated in detail, and there is a link to damage and illness, the result of which may be their improper structure.
The abundance of the information contained in this book will be of great interest and value for those studying veterinary medicine and hippology, owners, riders and breeders, in fact, for anyone who wants to learn more about the structure of the horse, and that makes it one of the most beautiful animals.
Author Peter Hoody for many years gave lectures on veterinary anatomy in the London Royal Veterinary College. He is also the author of the book "Topographic Anatomy of the Dog"
