Summary: Dissappointed
Review: Thinly disguised self help book which seems to help the author more with his issues. Returning this book.

Summary: Recommend -- not just for horse people. (good read)
Review: This book is not about riding. It's about the deeper, emotional effect horses have on people.
We know there is something special about horses in many categories. We're not quite special enough to figure it out, but we're coming close and Wyatt takes us a step closer with his concrete examples and his own insights into horses and people, and the horse-people relationship.
This book should be in the self-help section although it's really about how horses help people. Very good book for people who are introspective. Great book for horse people who are introspective.

Summary: Dissapointed
Review: This could have been a good book. If he said a lot less about himself. and more about how the therapy worked.and less about all those case studies. I thought it would have been great to go to Tucson but after reading the book with all that fowl language it it. I would not want to spend that money. Does this man use the f word in his classes? I was under the impression that a person who used fowl language did not know how to express themselves. I can only trash this book. I would not even pass it on.

Summary: Very misleading
Review: This is one of the worst books I have ever read. All it is is a book about Wyatt himself and and basically an advertisement for what he does. I would not recommend this book.

Summary: He ain't no horse whisperer, but he is the REAL Wyatt Webb!
Review: Wyatt Webb makes clear in the first sentence of his book that he is NOT a horse whisperer. And even before that (on the book cover in fact) he makes clear that it's NOT about the horse. As a psychotherapist and author I believe that coming to terms with what is NOT the truth is an excellent first step toward discovering what IS the truth. So let me tell you some other things this book is NOT:It's NOT just another self-help book It's NOT just a memoir It's NOT to be taken lightly Now, something about what Wyatt Webb's book IS: It's Not About The Horse is a rare find in that it is as enjoyable as it is useful and as inspirational as it is practical. This is far more than a book about the life and times of Wyatt Webb (which makes for some pretty interesting reading by the way). This book is about all of us. It is, to use Wyatt's words, "about how we relate to all living things." Read this book and you will know yourself a little (or maybe a lot) better. And when you finish it, you will feel like you know Wyatt Webb too. More importantly, you will be glad to know him. - Thom Rutledge
