“A fascinating, provocative case that the metaverse will not merely transform our virtual experience—it may actually enrich the quality of our lives” (Adam Grant)—from the visionary co-founder of one of today’s most innovative technology companies “Mind-expanding . . . This important book offers a highly persuasive argument that a new kind of virtual world, the metaverse, marks a profound new stage in this long human quest for fulfillment through creation.”—Chris Anderson, Head of TED The concept of “the metaverse” has exploded in the public consciousness, but its contours remain elusive. Is it merely an immersive virtual reality playground, one that Facebook and other platforms will angle to control? Is it simply the next generation of massive multiplayer online games? Or is it something more revolutionary? As Herman Narula shows, the metaverse is the latest manifestation of an ancient human tendency: the act of worldbuilding. From the Egyptians, whose conception of death inspired them to build the pyramids, to modern-day sports fans, whose passion for a game inspires extreme behavior, humans have long sought to supplement their day-to-day lives with a rich diversity of alternative experiences. Rooting his vision in history and psychology, Narula argues that humans’ intrinsic need for autonomy, accomplishment, and connection can best be met in virtual “worlds of ideas,” where users have the chance to create and exchange meaning and value. The metaverse is both the growing set of fulfilling digital experiences—ranging from advanced gaming to concerts and other entertainment events and even to virtual employment—and the empowering framework that allows these spaces to become “networks of useful meaning.” Bloomberg Intelligence recently predicted that the metaverse will become an $800 billon industry by 2024. But its implications, argues Narula, are far more awe-inspiring than as a spigot of cash. The arrival of the metaverse marks the beginning of a new age of exploration—not outward, but inward—with the potential to reshape society and open the door to a new understanding of the human species and its capabilities. Rigorously researched and passionately argued, Virtual Society will be a provocative and essential guide for anyone who wants to go beyond superficial headlines to understand the true contours and potential of our virtual future.

Best Cleanser Ever
Best!!!!!! I finished 2 bottles and just got the 3rd. Makes my skin so smooth. Not drying at all. Very affordable too. Has small pores inside that does micro exfoliation. Very lightweight as well. I use it everyday, some days more than once.

Great foaming facewash
I love this face-wash! It foams up nicely, is very light and does a great job of removing makeup, oil & dirt - leaving your skin feeling clean. I have combination skin, am not prone to acne, but do occasionally get a pimple every now and then. If you’re looking for a nice, light foaming face wash, that doesn’t burn or leave residue, try this! I highly recommend it!

Refreshing and gentle — a solid cleanser for sensitive skin!
Refreshing and gentle — a solid cleanser for sensitive skin! I’ve been using the Anua Heartleaf Quercetinol Pore Deep Cleansing Foam for a few weeks now, and it’s become one of my favorite daily face washes. The texture is creamy and creates a soft foam that feels gentle but still gives a deep clean. I have combination skin with visible pores around my nose, and this cleanser helps control oil without leaving my skin tight or dry. The heartleaf and quercetinol ingredients really seem to calm redness and irritation — perfect if you have sensitive or reactive skin. My pores look a bit smaller and my skin feels smoother overall. It also has a very mild, clean scent that doesn’t linger. The only small downside is that it can take a little effort to rinse completely if you use too much product. Otherwise, it’s great value for the quality and performance.

Gently enough for sensitive skin
I love this cleanser. I have purchased this multiple times. I have sensitive combination skin and it works great for me. It exfoliates gently with out irritating my skin and feels like a spa quality product. Will continue to purchase
