1. Josepha Cheong (1989). The Use of Animals in Medical Education: A Question of Necessity Vs. Desirability. Theoretical Medicine and Bioethics 10 (1).
    An issue in current animal welfare ethics is the use of animals in medical education. At stake is the conflict of pain and suffering of the animals vs. the benefit to the students. The educator's role is to balance these two concepts. If the animals do suffer, this has to be justified by clearly establishing the necessity of their use. Neither this justification nor the methods for making the decision are clear. Addressed in this discussion are the arguments for and against animal use, alternatives, and proposals for the resolution of the controversy.
