Editorial Review

Product Description

This book deals with the role of education in improving animal welfare and reducing animal suffering inflicted by humans. It embraces situations in which humans have direct control over animals or

interfere directly with them, but it considers also indirect animal suffering resulting from human activities. Education is regarded in the broad sense of creating awareness and facilitating change. First, consideration is given to a number of specific themes in which education can make an important contribution towards reducing animal suffering, and subsequently an examination is made of a number of interrelated contexts in which education can address the various themes.

 

The considered educational themes are:

 

·        animal suffering and sentience that have both scientific and moral aspects

·        human discrimination against animals known as speciesism and the need for attitudinal change by humans

·        role and existing limitations of legislation in providing protection to animals

·        matter of enforcement of animal protection legislation

·        achievement of reform to improve animal protection by legislative and other means

·        training of professionals, carers, and users involved with animals to provide better protection

·        the scope for science to contribute to improved animal protection

·        animal protection as a regional and international issue

Product Description
Throughout history humans have used non-human animals in many different ways to ensure the success of their survival and throughout history there have been differing opinions about how and when animals should be used for satisfying human needs. Some argue that we should no longer use animals in ways that seem to exploit them. Others argue this is okay as long as the animals aren't hurt. Students can explore the different issues of animal rights and animal welfare in this four-volume set written at the fourth and fifth grade reading levels. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
Federal law now requires that institutions provide training for anyone caring for or using laboratory animals. This volume provides the guidelines and resources needed to coordinate a quality training program, as well as to meet all legal requirements. There is a core module for all personnel that takes no more than four hours to present. Most staff then proceed to one or more additional skills-development modules including the species-specific module that can be customized to any species in use at the institution, the pain management module, and the surgery module.The volume provides content information for required topics - from ethics to record keeping - and lists sources of additional publications, audiovisual programs, and computerized teaching aids. Included in this title are: ready-to-use teaching outlines, with detailed instructions for presenting material; practical guidelines on logistics, covering scheduling, budgeting, and more; and, guidelines on how to design training for adults and how to work with investigators who may resist taking training courses.This practical guidebook will be necessary for research institutions, particularly for staff members responsible for training coordination. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Much on Secondary Education Also!
The Use of Animals in Higher Education is well-researched and annotated and international in scope, with a primary focus on the US. It addresses secondary education as strongly as higher education, with quite a focus on elementary education as well.

After reading it, one is left wondering how the practice of dissection, in particular, has survived in our schools for this long. Every possible justification for dissection is held up, examined and found to be fatally flawed. Objections to dissection are also detailed, some that many may have never considered before, such as the dangers of formaldehyde exposure. The author points out that one school, at least, is now well aware of that danger: Mt. Saint Mary College, New York was fined $20,000 for various violations of OSHA standards, including exposing employees to formaldehyde and infectious substances.

Of course, the primary objections to dissection remain: 1) the way animals are obtained and how they are killed, the lack of educational justification for these deaths and, in the case of wildlife, the impact on the environment; and2) the effect that dissection has on the students' values and reverence for life, their attitudes toward biological studies andtheir career choices.

For me, the most poignant section was that describing "procurement and animal suffering." The description of the animal suffering at Carolina Biological Supply Company was particularly disturbing and disheartening. Replacements for dissection are now plentiful, as the author makes clear, and being used successfully. Studies comparing student achievement show that students using these replacements score as high or higher than those learning via dissection, with only one dissenting study.

Also powerful is a look at the sociological issues, especially germane when schools need to be doing all that they can to send the message that compassion and kindness matter in today's world. It is time to get rid of the "die section" at schools.

Dissection is not the sole focus of this book. Also addressed are replacement alternatives to the use of live animals in education. The author cites the successful use of alternatives in all levels of education, including veterinary schools and medical schools. Many readers will be surprised to learn that about half of all the 126 U.S. medical schools -including such prestigious institutions as Mayo, Harvard, Columbia, and Yale -now have no live-animal laboratories.

There is also good information in the book regarding the use of animals in elementary and secondary education, including a look at science fairs and laws and policies.

5-0 out of 5 stars There's a better way to teach science
Balcombe's book is thoroughly researched, clear and concise. He shows how the use of animals in higher education entails and fosters animal abuse, impedes the ethical development of students, and is ineffective and counterproductive in teaching science. All this is a great contribution, but there's more. He also describes humane alternatives and makes specific recommendations that will improve science education and eliminate much animal suffering. I'm using this book in a course on "animal and human welfare," and I highly recommend it! ... Read more
