From the back cover:
"The year is 2021. Somewhere out there, among the hordes of humans, lurk several rogue androids. Rick Deckard's assignment: find them and then...'retire' them. Trouble is, the androids all look and act exactly like humans, and they don't want to be found.
Originally published in 1968, this foreboding adventure is a masterpiece ahead of its time. In our own near future, a world war has killed millions, driving entire species into extinction and sending humankind off-planet. Those who remain covet any living creatures, and this desire spawns the technology to build incredibly realistic simulacra: horses, birds, cats, sheep...and humans. Fearful of the havoc these artificial humans can wreak, the government bans them from Earth. But androids don't want to be identitfied; they just blend in. And it's bounty hunter Rick Deckard's job to track down any futitives - and destroy them."
