Rat Trap Book

In Rat Trap, our Research Director, Dr Pandora Pound ends the debate about animal research once and for all. She shows that, far from being a necessary evil, it is one of the most important and urgent scientific issues of our time.

Rat Trap is dynamite! It blows the lid off decades of dogma.

Brute Science: Dilemmas of Animal Experimentation

Brute Science: Dilemmas of Animal Experimentation

by Hugh LaFollette and Niall Shanks
Routledge 1997 (Philosophical Issues in Science Series)

A good but very academic book.

“This is as important a book in applied ethics as one can hope to find. It mounts an an impressive scientific and moral case against the current practice of animal experimentation, demanding that we either provide an adequate defense of that practice or radically change it.” – James P. Sterba (Philosophy, University of Notre Dame)
