Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This fascinating book examines both sides of the controversial issue of vivisection and its role in the world of medicine. The author, a renowned physiologist, provides a thorough analysis of the topic, exploring its history, discussing scientific justifications as well as moral concerns. The author acknowledges that some past practices, such as surgical teaching demonstrations on live animals, have been rightly deemed unacceptable. However, a distinction is made between painful demonstrations and those using anaesthetised animals, which are defended as necessary for scientific progress. The author argues that, with the use of anaesthesia, animal testing is both ethical and essential for the advancement of medicine, highlighting its role in the eradication of diseases and the development of new treatments that save countless human lives. This book offers a balanced and thought-provoking exploration of the complex ethical, scientific, and medical considerations surrounding vivisection.
