Nozick's Notions Of Reality

The general argument Nozick is presenting would be that the point of reality is to be more vivid, more real, and to be more valuable. He states (p. 162) that in order to be real, one has to have a "higher score along any one of the various dimensions of the notions of reality". He also says that these specific dimensions "specify the notion of reality" by giving a description of the characteristics and they present the requirements for critiquing each item.

He then moves on to state how the human eye is shown at how
