His website is http://www.jamestunney.com.
Here he explores the controversies concerning the artistic genius of one of the greatest science fiction writers of the twentieth century. There are those who insist that his creations were the result of drug-induced paranoic fantasies. Others describe him as a visionary, mystic, gnostic, and even a prophet. While acknowledging Dick’s psychological disturbances and addictions, he explains that they, alone, cannot account for the brilliant creative output of many decades. He sees P. K. Dick as a prophet primarily.
