Description

Virtual reality is real reality; that’s the central thesis of Reality+. In a highly original work of “technophilosophy,” David J. Chalmers provides a compelling analysis of our technological future. He argues that virtual worlds are not second-class worlds, and that we can lead a meaningful life in virtual reality. We might even already be in a virtual world.

Throughout the book, Chalmers explores major ideas in philosophy and science. He employs virtual reality technology to offer new insights into long-standing philosophical questions. How do we know there is an external world? Is there a god? What is the nature of reality? What is the relationship between mind and body? How can we live a good life? All of these questions are explored or transformed through Chalmers’ thought-provoking analysis.

Filled with illustrations that bring philosophical concepts to life, Reality+ is an important work that will influence discussions of philosophy, science, and technology for years to come.
