Review

The Video Game Debate is a collection of scholarly articles about the social, psychological, and cultural impact of video games. More specifically, the essays examine the ways in which Video Games and their potential affects on the mental health of those who play them have been studied and what conclusions can be drawn at the present moment in time. Since the book was put together and released last year it's pretty safe to say that the conclusions, studies, and information in the book is entirely up-to-date.
