The chapter 'Preamble' introduces the book with foundational materials including copyright, dedications, and forewords that frame Philip K. Dick's restless spiritual explorations and the personal cost of his writing. It details Doris Elaine Sauter's evolving relationship with Dick, their shared spiritual journeys, and Gwen Lee's interviews that reveal Dick's creative intensity and theological inquiries, culminating in reflections on his legacy and contrasting beliefs about the afterlife. The chapter closes by posing a provocative question about the nature of reality, suggesting our world might be perceived as a heaven by other entities, linking this to cultural narratives exemplified by 'Blade Runner.'
