Paper The story that I had chosen in The Wesleyan Anthology of Science Fiction is Eileen Gunn’s Computer Friendly. The objective of the story is taking about the virtual reality and it has been put the category of “Computer and Virtual Reality” in the book.

using non-technical terms. The introductory part looks at the development of robotic approaches in the rehabilitation of neurological patients and outlines the principles of robotic device interactions with patients. There follows a section on virtual reality in rehabilitation. Hapticity and interaction between robot and human are presented in order to understand the added value of robotics that cannot be exploited in other devices. The importance of passive exercise and active tasks is then discussed
