At the time of its initial publication in 2008, Coming of Age in Second Life was the first book of anthropology to examine this thriving alternate universe. The residents of Second Life create communities, buy property and build homes, go to concerts, meet in bars, attend weddings and religious services, buy and sell virtual goods and services, find friendship, fall in love - the possibilities are endless, and all encountered through a computer screen. Second Life is one of the largest of these virtual worlds. Millions of people around the world today spend portions of their lives in online virtual worlds.
