One of this country's most beloved teachers and clinicians, inducted into the USDF Hall of Fame, presents this delightful exploration of issues of gravity, balance and kinetics as applied to riding. Written in his own inimitable lively and humorous style, along with Patty Naegeli's charming cartoons, "Dr. Max" makes the physics of riding understanding and ---dare we say--- interesting!
