At once a history of Caspian horses, an exploration of Mahdavi's Iranian-American identity and family history, and a consideration of the capacity for self-reflection and self-compassion through human-animal relationships, \u003ci\u003eRiding \u003c\/i\u003eoffers a roadmap for learning to live in harmony with the self and the environment around us. Mahdavi shows how her relationship with horses gives her insights into intergenerational strength and tools for healing intergenerational trauma. Riding from the mountains of Iran to the beaches of California, Mahdavi shares her love affair with horses, rediscovers a homeland she longs for, and ultimately finds her strength.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Pardis Mahdavi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1478028408\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781478028406\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Duke University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/25\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.26lbs","brand":"Pardis Mahdavi","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46571241996543,"sku":"9781478028406","price":84.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b115cb16-9c64-46b7-9fce-691645ba1f07.jpg?v=1738807658","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/riding-pardis-mahdavi-9781478028406","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
