War/Play: Video Games And The Militarization Of Society (Minding The Media)

War/Play critically examines the role that militarized video games such as Call of Duty play in the lives of young people and the impact these games have had on the evolution of youth culture and the broader society. The book examines and critiques the manner in which the habits and social interactions of young people have been reconfigured through a form of pedagogy embedded within this genre.
