About this title: In this study, a former writer at the Johns Hopkins Center for Alternatives to Animal Testing takes a close look at the debate over animal testing, considering common arguments of biomedical researchers and animal rights activists. In doing so, she offers a history of human rights groups' fights to stop inhumane experiments, starting with the 19th-century's anti-vivisection movements in England and the United States.
