The animal research war

the long version

Documents the last 20 years of the animal rights assault on biomedical research. This book provides information about animal rights philosophy, tactics, and actions, along with animal research purposes, methods, and triumphs. The authors identify grave dangers posed by the animal rights movement. Unless ordinary citizens understand its nature and unless the volume of violence is turned down, the movement may slowly but effectively shut off the pipeline of medical discovery. They describe the extensive federal regulation of research and the lengths taken to minimize animal pain and suffering.
