Jung and science-fiction author, Philip K. Dick, two figures who have done far more than most to revive an interest in the Gnostic tradition in the modern world. Despite profoundly different approaches - one was a depth psychologist whose unique insights and approach to psychology forced him to explore the depths of the unconscious in a way that inevitably led him to touch frequently on metaphysical or spiritual matters; the other was an author of science-fiction - there are some striking parallels between their unique Gnostic visions. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the relatively recent publication of both Jung's and Dick's personal journals - \u003ci\u003eThe Red Book\u003c\/i\u003e (2009), and, \u003ci\u003eThe Exegesis of Philip K.
