This book is proof of the excellency of the programme of the first Conference on Equine Sports Medicine and Science (Cordoba, Spain). The aim of the scientific committee was to regularly convene international experts on healthy and sick sport horses (sport science and sport medicine) thereby allowing equine professionals access to state- of-the-art knowledge on these subjects.

The main topics covered are:
- Internal medicine and effects of exercise
- Diagnosis and treatment of orthopaedic problems
- Feeding and performance evaluation
