A book on virtual reality co-authored by NCSA staffer Alan B. Craig with William R. Sherman and Jeffrey D. Will is now available. Developing Virtual Reality Applications details several virtual reality applications and how they are used in a variety of fields. The authors examine what makes the applications workable and how principles and theories of virtual reality are applied.

Craig, who has worked for NCSA for more than 20 years, is the associate director of human-computer interaction for the Institute for Computing in Humanities, Arts and Social Science (I-CHASS).
