Book The Vivisection Question  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Vivisection Question Classic Reprint written by Albert Leffingwell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Vivisection Question I. By Vivisection is meant experimentation of any kind, painful or painless, made upon a living creature for an alleged scientific purpose. II. Within certain limitations and to a certain extent, the utility of animal experimentation makes it justifiable and right. III. The abuses to which the practice is liable are so great, that vivisection should be regulated by law, and placed under the control and supervision of the State. In order to prove need of the legal regulation here advocated, it has been necessary to refer to cruelties and abuses, incident to the practice as now carried on. The revelation of these has induced criticism; but I cannot see how otherwise, there could be adduced any proof of necessity for legal control. In one respect, the task made necessary by controversy on this subject has been exceedingly distasteful. It is by no means a pleasant literary employment to point out the inaccuracies or to demonstrate the blunders made bv men of national repute in their opposition to the regula tion of experimentation. But no fact is more clearly apparent than that too eager laudation of vivisection without control has evoked a carelessness of statement.

Book The Uselessness of Vivisection as a Method of Scientific Research  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Uselessness of Vivisection as a Method of Scientific Research Classic Reprint written by Lawson Tait and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Uselessness of Vivisection as a Method of Scientific Research I need not go into the general history of Vivisection, for it hardly bears upon the question to which I desire to limit myself; but I think it advisable to formulate a few preliminary conclusions before I come to my immediate subject, in order that I may clear the way for discussion, and show at once the grounds upon which I stand, for I find myself in a position adverse to the view adopted by the great majority of my professional brethren. I dismiss at once the employment of experiments on living animals for the purpose of mere instruction, as absolutely unnecessary, and to be put an end to by legislation without any kind of reserve whatever. In my own education I went through the most complete course of instruction in the University of Edinburgh without ever witnessing a single experiment on a living animal. It has been my duty as a teacher to keep myself closely conversant with the progress of physiology until within the last four years, and up to that date I remained perfectly ignorant of any necessity for vivisection as a means of instructing pupils, and I can find no reason whatever for its introduction into English schools, save a desire for imitating what has been witnessed on the Continent by some of our most recent additions to physiological teaching. In Trinity College, Dublin, the practice has been wholly prevented, and on a recent visit to that institution I could not find, after much careful inquiry, the slightest reason to believe that any detriment was being inflicted upon the teaching or upon those taught. Claims of Vivisection Denied. The position of vivisection as a method of scientific research stands alone amongst the infinite variety of roads for the discovery of Natures secrets as being open to strong prima facie objection.

Book Vivisection  Is It Justifiable   Classic Reprint

Download or read book Vivisection Is It Justifiable Classic Reprint written by Charles Bell Taylor and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vivisection: Is It Justifiable? Vivisection, you will find an experiment on an animal under curara (the most cruel of all poisons, and which, although it paralyzes motion, only heightens sensation), is recorded. The subject was a small docile dog, which, a few minutes after the drug was injected under the skin, staggered on its fore paws, walking on the tips of its toes until it fell over, frothing at the mouth and weeping abundantly. Its windpipe was then slit open and the nozzle of a bellows connected with a gas engine used for artificial respiration inserted. The side of the neck, the side of the face, the side of the foreleg, and interior of the belly were then dissected out, and the sciatic and other nerves exposed and irritated with galvanic shocks. No anaesthetic was used, and the agony the poor creature endured must have been awful; yet it was continued for ten hours, at the end of which time the operators left for their homes; but they did not release the subject of the experiment, or end its sufferings by death. It was purposely left helpless and mutilated as it was, in order that they might resume their investigations next day without prelimi nary delay. When the next day came the poor dog was dead; the machine was at work (as it is, I am told, in these laboratories Often night and day), but it was pumping air into and out of a dead body.

Book Anti Vivisection and the Profession of Medicine in Britain

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.

Book The Ethical Case against Animal Experiments

Download or read book The Ethical Case against Animal Experiments written by Andrew Linzey and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2017-12-21 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At present, human beings worldwide are using an estimated 115.3 million animals in experiments—a normalization of the unthinkable on an immense scale. In terms of harm, pain, suffering, and death, animal experiments constitute one of the major moral issues of our time. Given today’s deeper understanding of animal sentience, the contributors to this volume argue that we must afford animals a special moral consideration that precludes their use in experiments. The Ethical Case against Animal Experiments begins with the Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics's groundbreaking and comprehensive ethical critique of the practice of animal experiments. A second section offers original writings that engage with, and elaborate on, aspects of the Oxford Centre report. The essayists explore historical, philosophical, and personal perspectives that range from animal experiments in classical times to the place of necessity in animal research to one researcher's painful journey from researcher to opponent. A devastating look at a contemporary moral crisis, The Ethical Case against Animal Experiments melds logic and compassion to mount a powerful challenge to human cruelty.
