In the field of science fiction, the work of Philip K Dick is unparalleled. His novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? became the classic science-fiction film Blade Runner. His short story, "The Minority Report," was adapted for the screen by Stephen Spielberg and stars Tom Cruise.

Dick that continued over the course over the next three months. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the field of science fiction.
