Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

Philip K. Dick · first published 1968 · ISBN 9781570420528

Set in post-apocalyptic 1992 San Francisco, a bounty hunter tracks escaped androids while questioning what separates authentic life from artificial imitation. The androids display greater emotional capacity than most humans, forcing him to confront his own assumptions about consciousness and humanity. Dick explores the philosophy of empathy, the erosion of authentic experience, and what it means to be alive in a contaminated, technologically dependent world.
