The Philosophical Implications of the Star Trek Transporter

Posted on March 18, 2016 by John DeNardo in Science and Technology, Star Trek // 1 Comment

Here’s an interesting video by CGP Grey regarding Star Trek transporter.

Watching this video and the discussion of the philosophical implications reminded me of the thought-provoking issues raised in The Resurrected Man by Sean Williams. Thanks, CGP Grey. Your video is less than 6 minutes long, but it will take me hours to re-read the book.

    I saw the video a few days ago and it was excellent, but I’m commenting to say I’m so glad you mentioned “The Resurrected Man” by Sean Williams! That was a very good book, and a perfect one to mention in this context.
