This Week's Letters

A brochure explaining to the general public why animal research is important is described. Salmon farming is said to use less of "nature's subsidies" than the raising of chicken or pigs. A letter writer is concerned that, "[b]ecause of the capitalization costs and other financial and political constraints, the wealth flowing from pond-harvested shrimp is concentrated away from the lower economic classes." And a correction of a 1997 report reveals that an unknown serum factor may have been responsible for the suppression of mutations in a human tumor cell line.
