Copenhagen: Periodica, 1972. Presumed First Edition/First Printing. Wraps. very good. 25 cm, 536 pages. Wraps. illustrations. Cover frayed at edges. Name stamped on front cover. Experiments involving non-human primates (NHPs) include toxicity testing for medical and non-medical substances; studies of infectious disease, such as HIV and hepatitis; neurological studies; behavior and cognition; reproduction; genetics; and xenotransplantation. Around 65,000 NHPs are used every year in the United States, and around 7,000 across the European Union. Most are purpose-bred, while some are caught in the wild. Their use is controversial. According to the Nuffield Council on Bioethics, NHPs are used because their brains share structural and functional features with human brain. Some of the most publicized attacks on animal research facilities by animal rights groups have occurred because of primate research. In the early 1970s, Diczfalusy met Alexander Kessler, a young American scientist who was head of a small World Health Organization (WHO) unit dedicated to human reproduction, and together they conceived the creation of an Expanded Program of Research, Development and Research Training in Human Reproduction, known as HRP. The main focus of the Human Reproduction Program was to develop new methods of contraception and further research on existing methods. Over the following 25 years, as Senior Consultant, he became involved with every group of scientists working in the program (the so-called Task Forces), while at the same time heading the WHO Collaborating Centre in Research and Research Training in Human Reproduction established by the Program in Stockholm. Eventually, the Program grew to become a "Special Program", cosponsored by four international entities, the United Nations Development Program, the United Nations Population Fund, WHO and the World Bank, but Diczfalusy remained the driving force behind most of the activities. When, at age 75 years, he retired as HRP Consultant, he concentrated his work in analyzing our "ageing world" and the dire reality of a West with "Too many grandparents for too few grandchildren". He became convinced that the future must deconstruct the deterministic worldview of past centuries and replace it with a "science-driven anthropocentric worldview" and continued to battle on behalf of all ageing women of the world, their plight, their needs and their aspirations.
