Abstract

The Social Life of Avatars will be essential reading for computer scientists, and social scientists who are developing and researching virtual worlds. It will also be useful background reading for advanced undergraduate or postgraduate courses in the Sociology of New Information and Communication Technologies, Computer-Mediated Communication, Virtual Reality, Computer Graphics, HCI and Multimedia.
