    The Shocking Truth about Animal...

    The concept of animal rights is a deeply philosophical and ethical issue that challenges our views on how animals should be treated and regarded in society. At its core, animal rights is the belief that animals, like humans, have inherent value and deserve certain protections from harm, exploitation, and abuse. This perspective asserts that animals are sentient beings capable of experiencing pain, fear, and pleasure, and thus, they should not be subjected to unnecessary suffering or exploitation for human gain. 
    Historically, animals have been viewed largely as property or resources for human use, whether in agriculture, industry, or even entertainment. Over time, however, a growing awareness of animal sentience and the recognition of their complex emotional and cognitive abilities have led to significant shifts in how societies regard and treat animals. The modern animal rights movement can trace its origins to the mid-19th century, with the establishment of the first animal protection laws and the formation of advocacy groups dedicated to the welfare of animals. 
    The industrial revolution marked a turning point in the relationship between humans and animals, as it saw the rise of factory farming, animal testing for medical and cosmetic purposes, and the widespread use of animals in entertainment. These practices sparked widespread concern about the ethics of animal use, leading to the formation of various animal welfare organizations, including the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) in 1866. These groups campaigned for more humane treatment of animals, but it wasn’t until the 20th century that the concept of animal rights as a broader ethical movement began to take shape.

    Cardiac Cowboys is the dramatic story of five deeply flawed geniuses who together—and in competition with each other—invented open-heart surgery against all conventional medical wisdom and saved millions of lives. 
     
     
     
    A decade after World War II, there was still no such thing as open-heart surgery, and yet half a million Americans were dying from heart disease every year. One in a hundred children would suffer and die from congenital heart disease as well, and doctors did little other than predict their deaths. After the first daring operation in 1954 and through the next three decades, five heroic surgeons braved the scorn of their peers, withstood fierce desperation, and faced possible death in order to devise procedures that would save overwhelming numbers of those doomed children and provide hope for a new life to all manner of heart-failing individuals. Devising and mastering heart transplants and bypass surgery, they invented artificial heart valves, the lifesaving pacemaker, and worked toward the holy grail of an artificial heart as their private and professional lives imploded. The story of the Cardiac Cowboys, their outsized personalities, and often self-destructive behavior is a saga more thrilling and exhilarating than fiction.

    During the Space Race, many people envisioned a future in which space travel would be a common undertaking for ordinary citizens. Just as riding in an airplane was once a daring endeavor, travel by rocket could be refined and made safer over time. That collective aspiration to someday take part in dreams NASA brought to life was integral to inspiring public interest in the space program. However, in the years following Apollo 11 in 1969, popular enthusiasm for space travel waned, and dreams of vacationing like the Jetsons gave way to more grounded goals. The level of interest NASA enjoyed would never again be comparable to the culturally defining moments of the agency’s most celebrated missions during the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo Programs.  
    	Nonetheless, in 1972 and 1973, NASA sent nine astronauts to spend extended periods of time living in a craft named Skylab, the very first experimental American space station. Though Skylab would not last long, and the International Space Station remains far more famous, Skylab’s history is one of ingenuity and challenge, as well as how NASA found itself without a mission after the triumph of the Apollo Program.
