Against this backdrop Dr. Superb, the sole remaining psychotherapist, is struggling to practice in a world full of the maladjusted. Ian Duncan is desperately in love with the first lady, Nicole Thibideaux, who he has never met. Richard Kongrossian refuses to see anyone because he is convinced his body odor is lethal. And the fascistic Bertold Goltz is trying to overthrow the government. With wonderful aplomb, Philip K. Dick brings this story to a crashing conclusion and in classic fashion shows there is always another layer of conspiracy beneath the one we see. 000707019 650_0 $$aAndroids$$vFiction. 000707019 650_0 $$aPresidents$$vFiction. 000707019 650_0 $$aPresidents' spouses$$vFiction. 000707019 655_7 $$aPolitical fiction.$$2lcgft 000707019 655_7 $$aScience fiction.$$2lcgft 000707019 85200 $$bgen$$hPS3554.I3$$iS46$$i2002 000707019 85641 $$3Sample text$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/samples/random041/2001056796.html 000707019 85642 $$3Contributor biographical information$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/bios/random053/2001056796.html 000707019 85642 $$3Publisher description$$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/description/random043/2001056796.html 000707019 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:707019$$pGLOBAL_SET 000707019 980__ $$aBIB 000707019 980__ $$aBOOK
