A “must read” for everyone working in animal research!

Extraordinarily thoughtful book from a keen observer of the world. These essays range from philosophical insights to practical contemplations and recommendations for the use of animal models in medical research. The veterinarians oath, Dr. Niemi’s unique business insights, complexities of the modern workforce, and more are all addressed in determining the best and highest use of preclinical research. This kind of insight wasn’t availble when I attended veterinary school; now that it is, no veterinary student should miss it and general audiences will also enjoy this profoundly unique perspective.
