Coming of Age in Second Life: An Anthropologist Explores the Virtually
Human. Tom Boellstorff. 2010. Princeton University P.
Millions of people around the
world today spend portions of their lives in online virtual worlds. Second
Life is one of the largest of these virtual worlds. The residents of Second Lif
e 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. Tom Boellstorff conducted more than
two years of fieldwork in
Second Life, living amo
ng and observing its residents in exactly the same way anthropologists traditi
onally
have done to learn about cultures and social groups in the so
-‐
called real world.

about identity and
society.
