{"product_id":"philip-k-dick-and-the-evan-lampe-9781508741497","title":"Philip K. Dick and the World We Live In","description":"We live in a world that looks increasingly familiar to the worlds described by Philip K. Dick a half century ago. In this book, Lampe explores the multiple ways in which the global capitalist society-liquid and uncertain-was foreshadowed in Dick's novels and stories. Analyzing most of Dick's works, including the often underappreciated stories and early novels, Lampe establishes the outline of a general interpretation of Philip K. Dick for our age. This book also goes beyond Dick's mystical, philosophical, and metaphysical questions and documents his economic, political, and social vision. With chapters on the rise of the surveillance state, technological unemployment, global governance, family, mental illness, new religious movements, consumerism, and urban geography this book presents new ways to read the most important American science fiction writer of the twentieth century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Evan Lampe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1508741492\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781508741497\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/13\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 398\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.82d","brand":"Evan Lampe","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48445255123199,"sku":"9781508741497","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c9afba72-4e47-43f2-93c7-d9dab5f52451.jpg?v=1777217516","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/philip-k-dick-and-the-evan-lampe-9781508741497","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
