From one of our leading thinkers, a dazzling philosophical journey through virtual worldsIn the coming decades, the technology that enables virtual and augmented reality will improve beyond recognition. Within a century, worldrenowned philosopher David J. Chalmers predicts, we will have virtual worlds that are impossible to distinguish from nonvirtual worlds. But is virtual reality just escapism? In a highly original work of technophilosophy, Chalmers argues categorically, no virtual reality is genuine reality. Virtual worlds are not secondclass worlds. We can live a meaningful life in virtual reality and increasingly, we will.What is reality, anyway? How can we lead a good life? Is there a god? How do we know theres an external world and how do we know were not living in a computer simulation? In Reality+, Chalmers conducts a grand tour of philosophy, using cuttingedge technology to provide invigorating new answers to ageold questions.Drawing on examples from pop culture, literature and film that help bring philosophical issues to life, Reality+ is a mindbending journey through virtual worlds, illuminating the nature of reality and our place within it.
