Reality Is Broken
Why Games Make Us Better and How They Can Change the World
Book • 2011
In 'Reality Is Broken,' Jane McGonigal argues that games provide rewards, challenges, and epic victories that are often lacking in the real world.
She suggests that gamers are expert problem solvers and collaborators and introduces cutting-edge games that are already addressing social problems like depression and obesity, as well as global issues like poverty and climate change.
The book proposes that by understanding and designing games, we can improve our daily lives, work, philanthropy, and relationships outside of gaming.
