Sinopsis

A gritty, in-the-trenches report on the battle over primate use in medical research, inspired by a series of articles by the author that won a Pulitzer Prize in 1992. Deborah Blum provides an unflinching look at the experiments that chimps and monkeys endure in research labs and gives equal accord to both researchers and animal rights activists.
