“Fewer Rules, Better People: A Norton Shorts Speakers Series”

Hosted by Barry Lam

Join Professor Barry Lam (University of California, Riverside) for a conversation on his absorbing new Norton Short "Fewer Rules, Better People: The Case for Discretion." Professor Lam's book is a provocative treatise that interrogates today's biggest debates about law and justice and the the potential threats of AI encroaching on these systems. In the second half of the hour, audience members are invited and encouraged to ask questions in an open Q&A with Professor Lam.

Barry Lam is a professor of philosophy at the University of California, Riverside, and the host and producer of the Hi-Phi Nation podcast for Slate, a show about the moral and philosophical issues implicated in science, law, and everyday life.
