Titre : The end of animal life : Ethical and societal considerations on killing animals Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Franck L.B. Meijboom, Directeur de publication, rédacteur en chef ; Elsbeth N. Stassen, Directeur de publication, rédacteur en chef Editeur : Wageningen Academic Publishers Année de publication : 2016 Importance : 270 p. ill. en coul. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-90-8686-260-3 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 174 Déontologie (Ethique professionnelle) Résumé : "Killing animals is common practice, yet it is not morally neutral. The end of animal life is related to many societal and ethical questions and concerns. Questions such as how long should we continue to treat an animal before putting it down? But also the question whether it could be legitimate to kill individual animals for the welfare of the herd or of future generations. The ongoing public and academic discussions on these, and on other well-known questions like those related to the killing of animals for food or for scientific purposes, show that there is no one standard evaluation of animal life. This book is an edited volume that enables the reader to get a grip on that plurality of views with regard to animals. It helps to deal with the many questions related to the end of animal life. The chapters show how the plurality of views on killing animals is related to moral presuppositions by providing a clear overview of the ethical views on end-of-life decisions. Furthermore, the book contains a number of applied studies of the ethical questions related to killing animals in various practices, including small animal practice, wildlife management, fishing and fish farming, animal experimentation and livestock farming. These chapters can help veterinarians, scientists, students, policy makers and many other professionals working with animals to easily get a good overview of the issues at stake, and may contribute to responsible decision-making with regard to the end of animal life."

Titre : Veterinary ethics : navigating tough cases Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Siobhan Mullan, Auteur ; Anne Fawcett, Auteur Editeur : Sheffield, UK : 5M Publishing Année de publication : 2017 Importance : 1 vol. (xxv-526 p.) Présentation : ill Format : 25 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-910455-68-5 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Veterinary Medicine ethics Animal Welfare Veterinarians Animal Technicians Veterinary medicine Moral and ethical aspects Professional ethics Index. décimale : 174 Déontologie (Ethique professionnelle) Résumé : "What should a vet do when a client can't pay for their animal's treatment' Or when asked their opinion on the killing of wildlife for disease control' Or when observing an animal welfare problem whilst off duty' Ethical problems are an every day part of life for veterinarians, but it can be difficult to combine personal values with professional conduct. Veterinary Ethics presents a range of ethical scenarios that veterinarians and other allied animal health professionals may face in practice. The scenarios discussed are not only exceptional cases with potentially significant consequences, but often less dramatic everyday situations. The responses to these ethical problems are from practising veterinarians and acknowledged world experts in animal welfare and ethics. The advice given is thorough and detailed, covering different eventualities, the ethical knots and dilemmas, the personal feelings of those involved, as well as objective recommendations on ethical decision making and, where relevant, guidance from veterinary governing bodies and the law. The advice is framed in the form of veterinary life in the real world, not necessarily an ideal world. As well as practical guidance, the book takes a step back and explores the different philosophical arguments and standpoints and the resultant solutions and problems of each approach, examining the background and relationship between different philosophical schools of thought, ethics and veterinary care. The book strives to present decision making in response to ethical problems as transparently as possible, employing a range of ethical frameworks. The book also challenges the reader about their own decision making in given situations, what factors to consider and how they would achieve certain outcomes" -- Amazon.com Veterinary ethics : navigating tough cases [texte imprimé] / Siobhan Mullan, Auteur ; Anne Fawcett, Auteur . - Sheffield, UK : 5M Publishing, 2017 . - 1 vol.
