Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Experiments on Animals The first edition of this book was published in 1900. For twelve years it had been my business, as Secretary to the Association for the Advancement of Medicine by Research, to know something about experiments on animals, and to follow the working of the Act of 1876; and to give facts and references to a very large number of applicants. Believing that an account of these experiments, and of the conditions imposed on them by the Act, might serve a useful purpose, I proposed to the Council of the Association that I should write a book on the subject. The Council accepted this proposal; and decided that the book should be written for general reading, that it should not be anonymous, and that it should be published without reserve. It was, of course, a doubtful and embarrassing task. But, from twelve years' experience of the things said by the chief opponents of all experiments on animals, I knew that there was only one way of doing it - to give the original authorities, the plain facts, the very words, chapter and verse for everything. Among those who kindly revised the proofs were Prof. Rose Bradford and Prof. Starling, who revised Part I.; Mr. Shattock, who revised Part II.; and Prof. Schafer.

This book was released on 2018-01-17 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Conquest of Disease Through Animal Experimentation This book is intended to give some information upon one of these branches of scientific work: namely, animal experimentation. It is based upon addresses on this subject given by the author before the New York Academy of Medicine, the Medical Society of the County of Kings, and the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences. These have been amplified and made into a little book, with the hope that it may be of service in correcting some misconceptions, and that it may elucidate in a measure one of the most important and fruitful fields of scientific effort. In referring to certain experiments, the names of a few investigators are given. No attempt is made to mention all of the workers in any specific field. Names are given to serve as tangible links to connect the subject under investigation with the published reports. They must be regarded simply as illustrative, for in many instances the original authority is not given, but some later investigator is cited as serving better for illustrative purposes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Animal Experimentation: A Series of Statements Indicating Its Value to Biological and Medical Science The following are the statements of various remonstrants to proposed legislation to further restrict experimentation upon animals for medical and biological purposes in the Common wealth of Massachusetts. They were called out at the legis lative hearings upon this subject in the spring of 1901. The agitation in favor of such further restriction has been carried on for several years, and the views of the remonstrants are nowhere to be found in print. Many of the friends of research have expressed a wish to have some document to which reference may be made for the facts in the case, and it has therefore been decided to publish this book. It contains, not a shorthand report of what was said at the hearings, but the main points of what was so said, with additions from some who were not heard for lack of time, or because of absence from the country. In each case the writer has corrected his manuscript before publication. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Influence of Animal Experimentation on Medical Science From the beginning of history until the present century, medicine has been either absolutely denied a place among the Sciences or else branded as inexact, empyrical and laggard in its development and progress. Although dealing, as it does, with the most complex prob lems of human existence, where, as in no other science, every law of nature is controlled and modified by that unknown force we call vitality, Medicine has nevertheless, from the very first, been forced to meet the demand for complete knowledge. To it alone, the answer we do not yet know all has been denied. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Ethical Problem or Sidelights Upon Scientific, Experimentation on Man and Animals The position taken by the writer of this volume should be clearly understood. It is not the view known as antivivisection, so far as this means the condemnation without exception, of all phases of biological investigation. There are methods of research which involve no animal suffering, and which are of scientific utility. Within certain careful limitations, these would seem to be justifiable. For nearly forty years, the writer has occupied the position which half a century ago was generally held by a majority of the medical profession in England, and possibly in America, a position maintained in recent years by such men as Sir Benjamin Ward Richardson of England, by Professor William James and Dr. Henry J. Bigelow of Harvard University. With the present ideals of the modern physiological laboratory, so far as they favour the practice of vivisection in secrecy and without legal regulation, the writer has no sympathy whatever. An ethical problem exists. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Experimentation on Animals, as a Means of Knowledge in Physiology, Pathology, and Practical Medicine Have sometimes been made in extremely violent and denunciatory language, calculated rather to excite the feelings than to give any intelligent or impartial expression of the truth. It has even been declared, by one of the most active agitators in this field, that even though these living dissec tions were productive of all that their advocates claim for them, mankind have no right to the knowledge thus acquired and demands have been made, from the same quarter, for legislation which should put a stop to these wicked contri butions to human knowledge, which mankind would be all the better off for never It is evident, therefore that the aggressive move ment against experimental investigation 1s both unreasoning and persistent. It is liable at any time to resume its activity, and to endanger, both in the State of New York and elsewhere, the progress and improvement of physiological medi cine. For these reasons it has been thought de sirable to present in a condensed form the most important facts in regard to the character, the necessity, and the results of experimentation upon animals for scientific purposes, together with the testimony of the medical profession as to its value.

Download or read book The Methods and Findings of Experiments on the Visual Discrimination of Shape by Animals Classic Reprint written by N. S. Sutherland and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Methods and Findings of Experiments on the Visual Discrimination of Shape by Animals Over the past 50 years, a great many experiments have been performed on the problem of the visual discrimination of shape by animals. The present monograph attempts to review this evidence. I was led to make this attempt because I had already gathered together much material from scattered sources in the course of my own work on this problem. There is little that is original in this review, but by making the data on shape discrimination available in one monograph, it is hoped that the labour of others in gathering and disentangling the evidence may be saved, and possibly some research problems in an important but neglected field will be suggested. It has not been possible to include all work on the visual discrimination of shapes in the bibliography since much of this work is outside the scope of this review. The main concern is with experiments the primary purpose of which is to throw light on the discriminability of shapes or the properties in terms of which they are discriminated by different species, and it is hoped that the references to such experiments are fairly complete up to the end of 1959, though some more recent papers have been included. In reviewing this body of complex and scattered work, it is certain that some errors will have been introduced: I would welcome any corrections that are offered. The writing of this monograph was undertaken as part of a project on "Stimulus analysing mechanisms." This project was formerly financed wholly by the Nuffield Foundation, and is currently financed jointly by the American Office of Naval Research (Contract N62558-2453) and the Nuffield Foundation: I am grateful to these bodies for their financial support. I am also grateful to the Royal Society for a grant in aid of the publication of this monograph. I have been helped at various stages in its preparation by a number of people and am particularly indebted to Mr. W. R. A. Muntz, Mr. A. Watson, Professor J. Z. Young, and Professor O. L. Zangwill for reading the manuscript and for making many valuable suggestions. I would also like to thank Miss Anne Carr for help in preparing the figures, Miss G. Brydone and Miss J. Scott for help in translating from German; Miss R. Williams for typing successive drafts; and Miss K. P. Watts for invaluable assistance in preparing the MS. for the press.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Experiments on Living Animals; Useless and Cruel (a Medical View of the Vivisection Question): An Address, Delivered at Newcastle-on-Tyne, Thursday, March 5th, 1914 Now, there is no question about it that this brings before us a great moral issue. If, for the sake of argument, we take for granted that Vivisection is cruel, then undoubtedly, since every thing that is cruel is wrong, the practice of Vivisection must be wrong. If, also, we take for granted that good has been derived from Vivisection and that good results will be achieved from the practice in the future, it is equally immoral, because we have no right whatever to do evil that good may come. (hear, hear). And hence, which ever way one looks at it, even taking for granted the position the vivisector takes up, Vivisection, in our Opinion, is a practice which cannot be condoned.
