Sadler's Lectures

Philip Dick, Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep? - Rachel Rosen, Nexus-6 Android

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep

It focuses specifically on the character Rachel Rosen, who is a rather unusual Nexus-6 Android owned directly by the Rosen Corporation. She interacts with Rick Deckard in a number of ways, with her motivations eventually becoming clear late in the novel.
