If we want to live a moral life, how should we treat animals or complex artificial intelligence? What kinds of rights should non-humans have?

Glenn Cohen is one of the world’s leading experts on the intersection of bioethics and the law, as well as health law. He is an award-winning speaker and writer having authored more than 98 articles and chapters appearing in countless journals and gaining coverage on ABC, CNN, MSNBC, PBS, the New York Times and more.
