The Gaming Mind: A New Psychology of Videogames and the Power of Play by Alexander Kriss
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 886 KB
Overview: Are videogames bad for us?

In his therapy office, Kriss looks at videogames as a window into the mind. Is his patient Liz really “addicted” to Candy Crush—or is she evading a deeper problem? Why would aspiring model Patricia craft a hideous avatar named “Pat”? And when Jack immerses himself in Mass Effect, is he eroding his social skills—or honing them via relationship-building gameplay?
