Abstract:

The rapid developments in new communication technologies have facilitated the popularization of digital games, which has translated into an exponential growth of the game industry in recent decades. The ubiquitous presence of digital games has resulted in an expansion of the applications of these games from mere entertainment purposes to a great variety of serious purposes. In this edited volume, we narrow the scope of attention by focusing on what game theorist Ian Bogost has called 'persuasive games', that is, gaming practices that combine the dissemination of information with attempts to en

Abstract:

Video games aren't just for kids anymore. This book will describe the "why" and "how" to start or expand a video gaming program in the library, including some specific examples of how to target adult and female gamer patrons. Gaming supplies more than just visual stimulation and empty entertainment; it can also promote socialization as well as the learning of both traditional and new literacies required to succeed in the modern world. Problem-solving, multi-tasking, complex decision-making on the fly, and "reading" the combination of words and graphics are vital skills for the 21st century—all

Abstract:

This edited collection brings in multiple scholarly perspectives to examine the impact of the pandemic and resulting government policies, especially lockdowns, on one particular cultural sphere: games. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted virtually every aspect of our lives, regardless of where we live. In the initial months, many industry reports noted the unexpected positive impact on online digital game sales. Games were not just lockdown-proof, but boosted by lockdowns. Stay-at-home orders triggered a rush toward games as an alternative form of entertainment, and the ubiquity of mobile phone

Abstract:

In this bold, original study Hedrick proposes an early modern ‘entertainment value’ revolution, to which Shakespeare contributed and in which he played a competitive role. As London’s nascent capitalist industry developed and the variety of entertainments proliferated, theatre contributes to the birth of entertainment value and a commercial trajectory toward what Marxist critic Adorno theorizes as ‘fun,’ seen contemporaneously in LasVegasization and the election of Donald Trump to U.S. Presidency. In this innovative approach to Shakespeare’s plays through their compulsory, competitive relation

Abstract:

Digital gaming, whether performed using a game console, cellular telephone, or desktop computer, is now a popular entertainment activity. While men still dominate among game developers and players, this disparity has been reduced as game designers shift their views and develop games that support women’s style of play. In particular, women desire to practice and perform the competitive styles they use when performing real-world intrasexual competition: self-promotion, competitor derogation and manipulation, target manipulation, and the building of social hierarchies to obtain allies or spread i

Abstract:

Growing up with digital media is an ethical question. This volume examines current developments in the fields of digitalisation, education and the protection of minors in order to critically reflect upon a new set of issues in communication, media and information ethics. The importance of developing autonomy in children growing up in mediatised societies and of balancing autonomy with children´s need for protection (e.g. data protection or privacy) is central to this study. The book addresses the ethical dimensions of a mediatised childhood by exploring issues in surveillance and care, gaming

With entries that range from specific works to authors, folklore, and popular culture (including music, film, television, urban legend, and gaming), this book provides a single-volume resource on all things ghostly in the United States and in other countries. The concept of ghosts has been an ongoing and universal element in human culture as far back as recorded history can document. In more modern popular culture and entertainment, ghosts are a popular mainstay—from A Christmas Carol and Casper the Friendly Ghost to The Amityville Horror, Ghostbusters, Poltergeist, The Sixth Sense, and Ghost

This concluding chapter reflects on the continued trend of widespread gambling in the U.S. entertainment industry—which, among other factors, has contributed to the frequency of betting on college sports to this day—and the consequences thereof. Gambling has since become the norm, and with college sports programs being especially profitable ventures, game rigging as well as the exploitation of the players will continue to remain the norm rather than the exception, as the chapter explores more recent trends in sports betting.

While the gambling industry is indisputably large and powerful, it has received little attention from political scientists. Utilizing a variety of perspectives and techniques, von Herrmann analyzes gambling's recent expansion, finding public attitudes have been shaped both by government policies and the industry's attempts to create a family-friendly image. Von Herrmann examines the politics of state and federal gambling policy, particularly policies relating to casinos and state lotteries.

Abstract:

A central entertainment district also became the focus of debates about emotions in Cairo. Following the British occupation of Egypt in 1882, newspapers and magazines began to argue that activities in the neighborhood of Azbakiyya, such as alcohol consumption, prostitution, and gambling, destroyed the rationality of Cairo’s middle-class men. According to these accounts, men were at risk of wavering between extreme emotions of anger and love in the entertainment district. This loss of control over their emotions would ultimately lead to dire consequences for entire families and the Egyptian nat
