This book looks at how groups of people work together using the information contained within virtual environments, and how to improve these systems in terms of the coordination of collaborative work. It is the first overview of practical issues involved in designing and using Inhabited Information Spaces, and provides information on systems currently in use to show what works and what doesn't.
