Living a Second Life

摘要

Peter yellowlees, a professor of psychiatry at the University of California, Davis, has been teaching about schizophrenia for 20 years, but says that he was never really able to explain to his students just how their patients suffer. So he went online, downloaded some free software and entered Second Life. This is a "meta-verse" (ie, metaphysical universe), a three-dimensional world whose users, or "residents", can create and be anything they want.
