This book was released on 2016-12-13 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Heart of the Anti-Vivisectionist The extermination of these pests seems reasonable and justifiable to the average mind; nevertheless there are persons who object to the measure on moral grounds. Poisoning rats and catching them in traps might cause suffering; wherefore one should refrain. The same line of argument of course applies to all other lower animals. I would not have one mouse painfully vivisected to save the greatest of human beings, or the life dearest to me. This is an extraordinary statement, but it was made by a witness before the British Royal Commission on Vivisection, and it exemplifies the anti-vivisectionist's point of view. A little analysis resolves this line of thought into the utmost absurdity: A man has a tapeworm. If he nurtures the tapeworm, it will have a billion eggs cap able of becoming tapeworms, each having a billion eggs, and so on. The supply of human beings for those tape worms would not be adequate. It is therefore clear that lower forms of animal life must be destroyed in order that human life may be possible and tolerable. We must destroy pests that spread disease. We must destroy flesh-eating animals, lest they destroy us. We must kill plant-eating animals for food; and if not for food, for our own welfare, for otherwise they would consume the only form of food that would remain to us. Man is enjoined to do these things in the Bible, which in its first chapter bids him subdue the earth and have dominion over every living thing.

Download or read book Heart and Science written by Wilkie Collins and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 1997-01-15 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wilkie Collins’s later novels are often as concerned with social issues as they are with simple storytelling—but as more and more critics are suggesting, the best of them are as readable and thought-provoking today as they were when they first appeared. Of none is this more true than of his 1883 novel Heart and Science, which Collins himself placed alongside his masterpiece The Woman in White. Heart and Science turns on the fate of the orphaned Carmina Graywell, who is left in the charge of her aunt and guardian Mrs. Gallilee when her fiancé is forced to take an extended trip to Canada’s drier climes in order to recover his health. Over the issue of her inheritance Mrs. Gallilee schemes to manipulate, control and ultimately destroy the naïve but strong-willed Carmina. The story is complicated by the machinations of Dr. Benjulia, a dark genius whose passionate devotion to the study of diseases of the brain leads him to encourage the progress of Carmina’s life-threatening brain illness for the sake of scientific observation; the narrative builds to a pair of spectacularly lurid climactic scenes. Collin’s novel tackles the debate over what he termed ‘the hideous secrets of Vivisection’ with a passionate intensity aroused in large part by the sensational 1880s case of a doctor who was acquitted on charges laid under the new Cruelty to Animals Act of having practiced live experimentation on animals without a license. Excerpts from a contemporary account of this trial, together with other documents relating to the vivisectionist controversy and a variety of contemporary reviews of the book, are included among the appendices of this volume. The edition also includes a full introduction, chronology, explanatory notes and a note on the text. Heart and Science’s story of the struggle between strong-willed women will strike chords of sympathetic understanding with modern readers—as will its vivisectionist theme, with it’s clear parallels to the animal welfare/ animal rights debates of today.
Download or read book Anti Vivisection and the Profession of Medicine in Britain written by A.W.H. Bates and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-24 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. This book explores the social history of the anti-vivisection movement in Britain from its nineteenth-century beginnings until the 1960s. It discusses the ethical principles that inspired the movement and the socio-political background that explains its rise and fall. Opposition to vivisection began when medical practitioners complained it was contrary to the compassionate ethos of their profession. Christian anti-cruelty organizations took up the cause out of concern that callousness among the professional classes would have a demoralizing effect on the rest of society. As the nineteenth century drew to a close, the influence of transcendentalism, Eastern religions and the spiritual revival led new age social reformers to champion a more holistic approach to science, and dismiss reliance on vivisection as a materialistic oversimplification. In response, scientists claimed it was necessary to remain objective and unemotional in order to perform the experiments necessary for medical progress.
