| adam_text | The idea of virtual realities has a long and complex historical trajectory, spanning
from Plato s concept of the cave and the simulacrum to artistic styles such as
trompe I oeil and, more recently, to developments in 3D film, television and
gaming. However, this book will pay particular attention to the time between
the 1980s and the 1990s when virtual reality and cyberspace were represented,
particularly in fiction, as a wondrous technology that enabled transcendence
from the limitations of physical embodiment. The purpose of this critical historical
analysis of representations of virtual reality is to examine how they might deny,
repress or overlook embodied experience. Specifically, Chan contends that

something which is to be transcended. In this way, Virtual Reality: Representations
