I have her book too and liked it, found it more accessible and understandable than others I've read.

Great, i am pleased with the book and despite being a bit wary of clicker training, have decided to give it a go.  I liked the second video on this link page of mint too  thumbs

I have had her and her husband's book and video for ages.  I bought them having seen their article about clicker training in Horse and Rider about 8 or 9 years ago.

I think she gives a really clear explanation of positive reinforcement and the use of the clicker, both in the book and the video. 

I then went on to Alex Kurland's books.  Whilst I think Shawna Karrasch is in many ways clearer, she came to horses and riding later, and with Alex I just felt there was this tremendous depth of knowledge and experience.

But yes, a really useful book.
