Philip Dick, Ubik - Stanton Mick, Ray Hollis, and The Trap - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel Ubik It focuses specifically on the ambush that Ray Hollis engineers, using Stanton Mick's company, based on the moon, as a potential new client for Runciter Associates. Glen Runciter, Joe Chip, and a team of 11 inertials (anti-psionic talents) fly to the location. They are asked not to take readings, which Joe Chip does anyways, discovering that Mick is actually a bomb in human disguise. It turns out that there is a conspiracy that had been laid for quite a while, involving Hollis and his organization, perhaps Mick, Pat Conley, and Runciter's talent scout Ashwood.
