Even as the popularity of videogames has skyrocketed, a dark cloud
continues to hang over them. Many people who play games feel
embarrassed to admit as much, and many who don't worry about the
long-term effects of a medium often portrayed as dangerous and
corruptive. Drawing on years of experience working directly with
people who play games, clinical psychologist Alexander Kriss steers
the discourse away from extreme and factually inaccurate claims
around the role of games in addiction, violence and mental illness,
instead focusing on the importance of understanding the unique
relationship that forms between a game and its player. Through
vivid psychotherapy case illustrations, autobiographical memoir,
and a wide range of psychological theory and research, The Gaming
Mind lays out an honest and humanistic vision of games, their
potentials and risks, and how they can teach us more about who we
are and who we could be.
