＊Reflection
There are two main points we can find in this book: environment and technology. Earth is desertification and only less animals can survive. Human beings destroyed environment and they don't know how to recover this damage. Therefore, they have to emigrate to Mars in order to keep survival. Besides, humans invented androids, which are human-like robots to help them do everything especially work, but they don't know some androids are so dangerous that they will kill people. In behalf of avoiding this situation, some policeperson like Dick Deckard appeared, their job is to kill those horrible androids. Nowadays, our Mother Earth has experienced many destruction from humans such as greenhouse effect or pollution. Moreover, even though technology is more progressive than before, it would bring more troubles to us.
