The Monkey Wars

The use of primates in research is an ongoing controversy. In this book, Deborah Blum gives a human face to the often caustic debate between animal rights activists and the scientists who use animals as subjects in their research. Blum criss-crosses America to show us first-hand the issues and personalities involved.

The Monkey Wars will make you see the whole question of animal research - and much that has been done in the name of science - quite differently.
