YA-- This useful book traces animal welfare interest groups from their earliest beginnings to the present day. Conflicts between the meat industry, the AMA, and National Institutes of Health, and the hunting and trapping industries versus the various national animal organizations that object to inhumane and cruel practices for the sake of profit are dealt with dispassionately; both sides' views and concerns are explained succinctly. Many individuals from such fields as medicine, law, science, and education describe how they became involved in animal protection activism. YAs with an interest in political movements or in animal rights will find this history fascinating and helpful in deciding how to channel their energies. A wonderful chronicle of a movement that is becoming more and more vocal in our society.
