“This work encapsulates a very wide body of literature on scientific aspects of animal welfare and will thus prove a valuable asset for animal welfare scientists, psychologists, students and teachers of all forms of biology, behaviour, medicine, veterinary medicine and animal usage.” (LASA Forum, 2020)“This book is an excellent reference text for both students who will be studying animal welfare and researchers in the field. It provides an excellent background on both physiological and behavioral measures. … This book is recommended for people who will be doing research in animal welfare because it provides an overview of most of the methods for measuring physiology and behavior. It will be especially useful for new research scientists in animal welfare.” (Temple Grandin, Animals, Vol. 10 (2), 2020)
