This second volume of papers dealing with scientific and ethical
aspects of animal welfare covers a variety of topics and areas of
inves tigation. It will be of particular interest to those readers
seeking more insight into such subjects as farm animal welfare and
humane husbandry systems; animal experimentation, especially in the
field of psychology; and pain in animals, notably its recognition
and alleviation. Several of our selections deal with very specific
subjects that are germane to animal welfare: the use of T-61 for
euthanizing cats and dogs, a new humane method of stunning for
livestock and poultry, an innovative alternative to killing animals
for rabies diagnosis, alterna tives to aversive procedures in
teaching experimental psychology, and the need for improved
theoretical modeling in animal experimentation and research design.
Following the precedent set in the first volume of Advances in
Animal Welfare Science, we have included several papers dealing
with people's attitudes toward animals. These papers range from a
consider ation of cultural influences and veterinary ethics to an
examination of anthropomorphism, to a discussion of the linkage
between the environ mental politics and perceptions of the Green
Movement and animal welfare and rights. We wish to express our
gratitude to the Manuscript Review Commit tee for the excellent
work they have done and to the twenty contributors to this volume
which we believe will do much to advance the science of animal
welfare, and the well-being of animals under man's dominion."
