Overview
|

This course uses classic and contemporary science fiction (SF) films and literature to explore aspects of mental and social life. Although our primary focus will be on psychological issues (artificial intelligence, consciousness, emotion), the course also explores what makes us human and our love-hate relationship with technology. |
