Addison-Wesley Publishing Company, Inc. (Reading, Mass./Menlo Park, Cal./ New York), 1991, English text 279 pp. This book is an update of Artificial Reality (Addison-Wesley 1983)

In this beautifully illustrated book, Myron W. Krueger, the father of artificial reality, updates the influential work published nearly a decade ago in which he described basic features of the technology and provided a vision of what was to come. Krueger relates here his personal odyssey from the origins of artificial reality to current developments, and communicates both an imaginative breadth of possibilities and his excitement in making many of them happen. In addition to his own work, he discusses the important contributors of others in what are sometimes called virtual reality, virtual environments, and cyberspace.
