A genuine and rarefied glance into the world of vivisection
 

A significant contribution to animal ethics discourse

“For over twenty years, my friends at the laboratory were mainly white and black mice, there were also gray mice and rats and a few rabbits. I consider them my friends because I truly loved them all and it is beyond my understanding how in my own two hands, without a flinch or hesitation, and without even being able to think of another possible way, I had caused them all such suffering.”

This is a unique and rare candid account of a vivisector who, after a long career in vivisection, had decided to break the wall of silence and courageously tells the story of lab animals that intertwines with her own life story.

The author is a former vivisector who, for over twenty years, had practiced animal experimentation for the sake of science.

MouseStruck is a true account unfolding the process of the author crossing the lines after contracting cancer following many years of participating in the research to find a cure for this class of diseases, and a sincere attempt to comprehend the vivisection act.
One Reviewer Notes:
Science has done some amazing things for Humankind. We have cured diseases, increased our life span and made advancements that would be considered mythical or even Godlike in days of old. Those accomplishment, as revolutionary as they are, have come at a price. Not all of them, but enough of them that the cost has scared souls and resulted in a body count few have considered – that of lab animals. Enter Ita Stein Gvirtzman’s “Mouse Struck,” an emotional, first-person​ memoir of the soulful kind. Courageous and open, this book chronicles the life and times of a vivisectionist, and the small rodent lives that were lost. Sad, hopeful and thought provoking.

About the Author
Ita Stein Gvirtzman was born in 1949, in Poland, to a family of Holocaust survivors who immigrated to Israel. Since her early twenties and over a period of two decades, the author has established a career as a vivisector. During that time she gave birth to her three children and navigated the demanding daily routine between her role as a mother and homemaker and her professional mission at the research laboratory to find a cure for cancer.

She had just turned 40 when she was diagnosed with cancer, the disease she was relentlessly researching, commencing a year-long treatment of chemotherapy and radiation. However this challenge only served to empower her both mentally and emotionally leading to the awakening of her suppressed conscience, acknowledging her long-awaited criticism of the vivisection method.

While struggling to save her own life, the author realized that she could no longer overlook the strong inner conflict between the act of vivisection and issues of moral values, ethics and humaneness. She dedicated the following years to further exploring the various existing approaches towards vivisection as a student at the Department of Humanities. In her academic papers she discusses applicable solutions to reduce the scope of vivisection practice towards abandoning it completely.

Acknowledging the need to raise public awareness she willingly shares her personal experience as a vivisector, becoming an advocate for those animals whose lives are at stake. Expressing her views at public gatherings and protests as well as at various discussions at the Israeli parliament the author diligently emphasizes the available alternatives defending animal rights.

MouseStruck was written to send this message across with the hope that it will bring forward the liberation of laboratory animals.
