For years, noted writer Laurence A. Rickels often found himself
compared to novelist Philip K. Dick--though in fact Rickels had
never read any of the science fiction writer's work. When he
finally read his first Philip K. Dick novel, while researching for
his recent book "The Devil Notebooks," it prompted a prolonged
immersion in Dick's writing as well as a recognition of Rickels's
own long-documented intellectual pursuits. The result of this
engagement is "I Think I Am: Philip K. Dick," a profound thought
experiment that charts the wide relevance of the pulp sci-fi author
and paranoid visionary. "I Think I Am: Philip K. Dick" explores the
science fiction author's meditations on psychic reality and
psychosis, Christian mysticism, Eastern religion, and modern
spiritualism. Covering all of Dick's science fiction, Rickels
corrects the lack of scholarly interest in the legendary
Californian author and, ultimately, makes a compelling case for the
philosophical and psychoanalytic significance of Philip K. Dick's
popular and influential science fiction.
