About This Item

New York: Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2000. First Edition. First? Printing. very good, good. 390, notes, references, resources, index, some soiling to DJ, publisher's ephemera laid in. In this study, a former writer at the Johns Hopkins Center for Alternatives to Animal Testing takes a close look at the debate over animal testing, considering common arguments of biomedical researchers and animal rights activists. In doing so, she offers a history of human rights groups' fights to stop inhumane experiments, starting with the 19th-century's anti-vivisection movements in England and the United States. New debates for the ongoing war between researchers working for human health and improved medications and the animal activists who work to protect animals say that animals have more rights then many of us give them. With an overview of the history of animal research and new ethics, ideals, and advances, this book is informative for both sides of the argument with the approaching of new diseases.
