Why has gambling become so accepted in the U.S. when other
historical vices, like smoking and drinking, continue to evoke
morality-based opposition? That simple but intriguing question
guides this path-breaking volume, the first interdisciplinary
academic study of gambling. Led by the renowned Alan Wolfe and with
essays by experts at the country's premiere centers in public
policy, clinical addiction, law, gaming, psychology, sociology,
moral philosophy, theology, and the arts, "Gambling: Mapping the
American Moral Landscape" is a tour de force of the booming
cultural and moral phenomenon that has become woven into the fabric
of American life. Both an attempt to understand and an effort to
predict its future consequences, the book will prove evocative and
critical reading for American civic and church leaders, activists,
historians and government officials.
