This book differs dramatically from the earlier version (published in 1966), and if I were the pedantic type (which I am, a bit), I'd consider them to be different works. I wonder if you need to have read the original, and then later, to read this restored copy (because that's really what it is), to gain insight into the original power of what he'd intended.

Remarkable work. ( )

This book started interesting, but quickly degenerated into something that was a drug induced nightmare - If it was a bit more coherent, with less technobabble, this would be quite a good novel.

I like the idea behind the book - just not the execution of it. ( )

A highly entertaining opening, followed by an extremely convoluted and confusing middle, all of which just sort of ends. I usually like Dick's writing, but this one is unusual. ( )

This one just doesn't hang together--but, whatever you do, avoid the version of this book known as LIES, INC. That one is utterly incoherent... ( )

I never seem to be let down by Phillip K. Dick and The Unteleported Man was no exception. Earth is overcrowded and people long for a fresh start. The answer is a new invention that teleports people to a far off planet with plenty of land and job opportunities for all. The only problem, the teleporter only works one way and no one has heard from those that have made the trip. The protagonist is a ruined man with only one space ship left of a large fortune. He isn't convinced this teleporter is so great and plans to make a 15 year trip in his ship to the planet and find out just what is going on. This is a fun, short story that I recommend to anyone that is in the mood for some good sci-fi.
