About This Book

Het werk schetst de natuurlijke ontwikkeling van het paard vanaf kleine, hondachtige voorouders met handachtige voeten, via fossiele tussenvormen tot de tamme rassen van nu. Het behandelt paleontologische vondsten en overgangsvormen die laten zien hoe verschillende groepen zoogdieren uit een gemeenschappelijke stam zijn voortgekomen, en beschrijft anatomische kenmerken, met name skeletvergelijkingen met de mens, om bouw en voetstructuur te verduidelijken. Afzonderlijke hoofdstukken verbinden evolutionaire uitleg met praktische observaties over rassen en bruikbaarheid, gericht op lezers met belangstelling voor natuurgeschiedenis en dierkunde.
