'The Research Handbook on the Law or Virtual and Augmented Reality is an extraordinary contribution to the scholarship in this rapidly developing area. The work boasts an impressive list of contributors, and the depth and breadth of topics is quite striking. One might think that such a work would be of interest primarily to lawyers involved in the computer game industry, or in law and technology. But this area of law now reaches into daily life, and both practicing attorneys and scholars in the areas of tort law (defamation, privacy law, right of publicity), constitutional law, intellectual property, criminal law, and business law will also find much to interest them, and a great deal of insight to assist them in analyzing the very real questions that this area of law now presents us. Recommended.'--Christine Corcos, Louisiana State University and A&M, USThe Research Handbook on the Law of Virtual and Augmented Reality offers an all-encompassing view on this field of legal research, containing 20 chapters from scholars in US, Asia, and the European Union, that explore how these jurisdictions might apply to VA/R-technologies and apps. Woodrow Barfield and Marc Blitz have edited an outstanding volume that should be read by all, including students and policy makers.'--Ugo Pagallo, Università degli Studi di Torino, Italy
