BOOKS
   ENDORSEMENTS
  • “Blending new voices with more familiar ones, The Ethics of Animal Research breathes new life into an old debate. Jeremy Garrett has shown that it is possible to move beyond polemics and have a productive exchange of ideas about the ethics of using animals in research.”
    --Peter Singer, Ira W. Decamp Professor of Bioethics in the University Center for Human Values, Princeton University
  • ​“This is a critically needed resource for students, professionals in science and ethics, and the general public. Jeremy Garrett provides an exceptionally helpful framing of the issues and a rich selection of new work that will expand and elevate the debate in heartening ways. By illuminating empirical, epistemological, and moral dimensions of the problem, developing alternatives to classical approaches, envisioning ideal practices, and suggesting ways to pursue them, the volume paves the way for vastly more meaningful dialogue: itself an important form of moral progress.”
    --Kathie Jenni, Professor of Philosophy and Director of Human-Animal Studies, University of Redlands
  • “This collection brings together a few older articles with mostly new ones. Readers are asked to grapple with the ethical as well as epistemological challenges posed by using other animals in distressful, usually painful, and often fatal scientific research. It offers insightful discussions that represent a range of views on this controversial subject and will be particularly valuable for students in the sciences as well as in philosophy courses.”
    --Lori Gruen, William Griffin Professor of Philosophy, Wesleyan University

   REVIEWS
  • “As I complete my overview of the book’s sixteen chapters, I find myself marveling at how much good work was included in a medium-sized anthology. This is an outstanding contribution. If there is a better, more helpful collection of essays on the ethics of animal research, I certainly have not encountered it.”
        --David DeGrazia, Journal of Value Inquiry
  • “The Ethics of Animal Research is a well-written and thoughtful book that provides a good overview of the issues for newcomers to the debate.  Readers and scholars already familiar with the animal ethics literature can also find value in the book because of its overall high quality of presentation, its compilation of scientific information relevant to animal research, and the nuances that its contributors add to familiar philosophical arguments and theories.”
    --John Rossi, American Journal of Bioethics
In only four decades, bioethics has transformed from a fledgling field into a complex, rapidly expanding, multidisciplinary field of inquiry and practice. Its influence can be found not only in our intellectual and biomedical institutions, but also in almost every facet of our social, cultural, and political life. This volume maps the remarkable development of bioethics in American culture, uncovering the important historical factors that brought it into existence, analyzing its cultural, philosophical, and professional dimensions, and surveying its potential future trajectories.
