To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I suppose that this really unmerciful prohibition is based on certain absura notions current in antivivisectionist literature on the subject of anaesthetics and narcotics. There are not only man}" volatile substances, besides ether and chloroform, which, when inhaled in sufficient quantity, produce equal insensibility to pain, but among the so-called narcotics there are not a few which, administered in sufficient doses by the mouth, hypo- dermically, or intravenously, produce complete insensibi...lity to pain, and, what is often of importance, insensibility extending over long periods of time. Anaesthetics and narcotics differ among themselves m their effects on the circulation, respiration, and other functions, and the exigencies of a research may require the use now of one and now of anotner without introducing any difference in the completeness of the anaesthesia. The range of choice of anaesthetics for experiments on animals is much larger than for use on human beings, and modes of administra- tion and dosage are often different in the two cases.
