‘A highly intelligent and philosophically probing discussion of our obligations to other animal species.’Stephen L. Darwall, University of Michigan, 'A highly intelligent and philosophically probing discussion of our obligations to other animal species.' Stephen L. Darwall, University of Michigan, 'Anyone who cares about the trade-off between acquiring human knowledge to help cure disease and the use of animals for those purposes will enjoy new perspectives on the issue as the result of Carruthers' fascinating arguments.', 'Those interested in the issue of animal rights should read this book. Carruthers lays out the philosophical issues involved in the use of animals in medical research with clarity and sincerity. Anyone who cares about the trade-off between acquiring human knowledge to help cure disease and the use of animal for those purposes will enjoy new perspectives on the issue as a result of Carruthers' fascinating arguments.' Michael S. Gazzaniga, Dartmouth Medical School, ‘Anyone who cares about the trade-off between acquiring human knowledge to help cure disease and the use of animals for those purposes will enjoy new perspectives on the issue as the result of Carruthers’ fascinating arguments.’, "...I would urge moral philosophers, especially those that are friends of the animals, to read this book. It has many strengths and a number of interesting discussions I have not been able to mention. The case against the animals is not likely ever to be more cogently made out." Harlan B. Miller, Philosophical Books, "A highly intelligent and philosophically probing discussion of our obligations to other animal species." Stephen L.
