Books by Stefano Gualeni

Chiefly drawing on the philosophical traditions of existentialism, it articulates the idea that - by means of our technical equipment and coordinated practices - human beings disclose contexts or worlds in which they can perceive, feel, act, and think.

Who are we in simulated worlds? Will experiencing worlds that are not 'actual' change our ways of structuring thought? Can virtual worlds open up new possibilities to philosophize? Virtual Worlds as Philosophical Tools tries to answer these questions from a perspective that combines philosophy of technology with videogame design.
