Providing an introduction to basic ethical concepts, he discusses a variety of ethical issues that are relevant to science and how they are ignored, to the detriment of both science and society. These include research on human subjects, animal research, genetic engineering, biotechnology, cloning, xenotransplantation, and stem cell research. Rollin also explores the ideological agnosticism that scientists have displayed regarding subjective experience in humans and animals, and its pernicious effect on pain management. Finally, he articulates the implications of the ideological denial of ethics for the practice of science itself in terms of fraud, plagiarism, and data falsification. In engaging prose and with philosophical sophistication, Rollin cogently argues in favor of making education in ethics part and parcel of scientific training.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49568143016209,"sku":"GOR009261051","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50352096542993,"sku":"CIN0521674182G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51003186184465,"sku":"NIN9780521674188","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52126964384017,"sku":"NLS9780521674188","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0521674182.jpg?v=1751447932"},{"product_id":"harley-davidson-and-philosophy-book-bernard-e-rollin-9780812695953","title":"Harley-Davidson and Philosophy","description":"This is a humorous investigation into the unlikely, yet very real connections between the likes of Marx and Foucault and one of the legendary symbols of outlaw individualism. Harley-Davidson Riders Club Great Britain is the oldest in the world, it was formed in 1948 and has a membership of 1,500 nationwide. In \"Harley-Davidson and Philosophy\" words like Sturgis, Hollister, and panhead share the page with philosophical giants such as Marx, Hobbes and Socrates. Fourteen philosopher\/bikers set out their thoughts in a series of essays, combining humour and philosophical introspection. This book offers a celebrator appreciation of the aesthetics of Harleys, the Zen journey of the endless highway and the direct approach that bikers confront situations, with slogans such as F*** The World. Melding bikers recollections with philosophical speculation, this book is a perfect gift for the bike enthusiast, the philosophically inquisitive and anyone with a brain and a sense of humour.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49586703237393,"sku":"GOR006467722","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50096949723409,"sku":"CIN081269595XVG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50278944571665,"sku":"CIN081269595XG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51007867027729,"sku":"NIN9780812695953","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52334846574865,"sku":"NLS9780812695953","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/081269595X.jpg?v=1751010799"},{"product_id":"unheeded-cry-book-bernard-e-rollin-9780192861047","title":"The Unheeded Cry","description":"There is no doubt that animals can think, feel and suffer.

The central issue is the use of animals in research and in food production. Laws reflecting the new ethic have been passed worldwide. Rollin urges animal producers and agricultural scientists in the USA to address animal welfare problems now, before federal legislation forces the issue. This book examines the origin and nature of the new social ethics for animals as a mainstream social phenomenon. In lay language and lively engaging prose, Rollin explains how changes in the nature of animal use in the 20th century have led to the need for an ethic that goes well beyond traditional social-ethical concerns about \"kindness\" and \"cruelty\" to animals. The specific welfare issues of close confinement, pain control and animal welfare that arise in various animal production industries are discussed in turn. Rollin identifies research problems in the beef cattle, swine, dairy cattle, veal calves, and poultry livestock industries. This book provides an excellent introduction to the philosophical, ethical, social and scientific dimensions of agriculture animal welfare.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49852807479569,"sku":"CIN0813825636G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0813825636.jpg?v=1751170564"},{"product_id":"farm-animal-welfare-book-bernard-e-rollin-9780813801919","title":"Farm Animal Welfare","description":"Animals born with bones and muscles are meant to move. In modern systems of intensive agriculture, however, many animals -- notably, swine, veal calves, and poultry -- are rigorously confined. In this book Professor Bernard E. Rollin describes problems of animal welfare in today's agriculture, discusses the research that exists for improving these systems, and proposes topics for further study.  Rollin urges animal producers and agricultural scientists to begin now to address welfare problems. He cites the biomedical research community, which ignored issues of pain control and animal welfare until public concern led to federal legislation. Promising work has already been done in Europe, where the public has demanded that livestock not suffer. A new social ethic in the United States calls for humane agricultural systems that meet the needs and natures of the animals we use. Striking a balanced and rational approach, Rollin's thoughtful text is valuable reading for animal producers, agricultural scientists, veterinarians, animal advocates, and the general public.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50362588528913,"sku":"CIN0813801915G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51251134693649,"sku":"NIN9780813801919","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52150180708625,"sku":"NLS9780813801919","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52959261786385,"sku":"GOR014668271","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0813801915.jpg?v=1751076395"},{"product_id":"animal-rights-human-morality-book-bernard-e-rollin-9781591024217","title":"Animal Rights \u0026 Human Morality","description":"It's been more than two decades since the first edition of this landmark book garnered public accolades for its sensitive yet honest and forthright approach to the many disquieting questions surrounding the emotional debate over animal rights.
