[199]-211) and index. 520 1 $a "How can one person make the world a better place? Henry Spira's extraordinary life as an activist shows that an individual can make a difference. By thinking about how giant corporations might be vulnerable, he found ways to change their practices and save the lives and health of animals all over the United States. Spira has led Revlon, Avon, and other cosmetics companies to change their testing procedures so that the words "not tested on animals" now appear on most cosmetic products - and are true. He stopped bizarre sex experiments on cats at a famous American museum, saved millions of American cattle from having their faces scorched with hot iron brands, and saved even larger numbers of animals from pointless drug testing. This book tells the inspiring story of a lifelong activist whose creativity and careful thought set the standard for the animal rights movement in the twentieth century."--BOOK JACKET. 600 10 $a Spira, Henry, $d 1927- 650 0 $a Animal rights activists $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Animal rights movement $z United States $x History. 650 12 $a Animal Rights $z United States $v Biography. 650 12 $a Animal Rights $z United States $x history. 650 17 $a Dierenbescherming. $2 gtt 650 17 $a Ethiek. $2 gtt 650 17 $a Rechten van het dier. $2 gtt 941 $a 7 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018012702.0 952 $l URAX314 $d 20170609030740.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160819045629.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20160213013233.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l N5UX522 $m 179/.3/092 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l N3AX771 $d 20090701080000.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B7C7B1C62AF811DE979B4407A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b IOHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
