Great Apes and Humans: The Ethics of Coexistence

Great Apes and Humans: The Ethics of Coexistence

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The close relation of apes to humans raises important ethical questions. Are they better protected in the wild or in zoos? Should they be used in biomedical research? Should they be afforded the same legal protections as humans? In Great Apes and Humans, field biologists, academic scientists, zoo professionals, psychologists, sociologists, ethicists, and legal scholars come together to present a spectrum of viewpoints on human responsibilities toward great apes united by concern for their safety and well-being.
