His motif of the lost or invisible twin came into many of his novels. When his twin sister died six weeks later, it had a profound effect on Philip. Both of his parents worked for the United States Department Of Agriculture. He was born Philip Kendrick Dick six weeks early with his twin sister Jane Charlotte to his mother Dorothy Kindred Dick and Joseph Edgar Dick. He has published 44 books and over a hundred short stories. Abuse of drugs, paranoia, and schizophrenia were also incorporated heavily into his books, drawing from Philip K. His books in later years shifted and began to explore the themes he was interested in, metaphysics and theology. Dick explored themes of political, sociological, and metaphysical nature which were incorporated into his books which deal heavily with monopolistic businesses, totalitarian government, romance, action, and altered states as well as betrayal and the perception of reality. He has written novels, essays, and short stories. Dick is a prolific American author of science fiction.
