This book addresses the topic of personhood-who is a "person" or
"human," and what rights or dignities does that include-as it has
been addressed through the lens of science fiction. Chapters
include discussions of consciousness and the soul, artificial
intelligence, dehumanization and othering, and free will. Classic
and modern sci-fi texts are engaged, as well as film and
television. This book argues that science fiction allows us to
examine the profound question of personhood through its speculative
and imaginative nature, highlighting issues that are already
visible in our present world.
