for Study of Ethics in Society
Tyler Gibb, Co-Chief of the Program in Medical Ethics, Humanities & Law at Western Michigan University Homer Stryker M.D. School of Medicine, will be leading discussions of Lock-In by John Scalzi (2015). In this dystopian medical science fiction/police procedural/murder mystery, a pandemic sweeps through the globe with mild effects except for the unlucky few: a syndrome in which they are fully conscious but cannot move or speak. This book raises questions about rationing medical care, discrimination in public spaces and other timely ethical themes.
Upon registration, the Center for the Study of Ethics in Society will send participants information for joining the meetings. First 10 to register get a free book from Humanities for Everybody.
