Examines both sides of the debate on animal experimentation and testing, as well as possible alternatives to such experimentation
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Grade 5-8-Experimenting on animals has been controversial since ancient times and many of the world's foremost philosophers have offered opinions on the matter. Woods examines the history of the debate, presents the pros and cons of the issue, and supplies a wealth of information about legislation and government programs dealing with animals and laboratories. The text incorporates direct quotations, fact boxes, and a few full-color photographs. Addresses and Web sites of groups for and against animal experimentation are provided along with extensive footnotes. This worthwhile purchase is for slightly younger readers than Andrew Harnack's Animal Rights (Greenhaven, 1996).
