About This Book

This work surveys laboratory investigations that establish physiological mechanisms and expand understanding of disease, detailing experimental findings on circulation, digestion, glandular function, bone growth, and the nervous system. It reviews bacteriological research and animal models used to study infections and toxins, evaluates experimental approaches to therapeutics and the action of drugs, and summarizes results relevant to various infectious and parasitic conditions and venoms. The author outlines the legal framework that governs animal experiments and presents a systematic rebuttal of anti‑vivisection arguments, providing original references and authorities to support the case for regulated experimental research.
