Playing – Killing – Living – Good and Evil in Virtual Worlds
The computer changes everything, including the way people play. Sebastian Ostritsch takes an ethical perspective on the novel cultural form of "computer games" and examines their relationship with morality and happiness, as well as the opportunities and dangers of gaming. He highlights what is new and unique about playing computer games. Drawing from the history of philosophy, Ostritsch explains the exact nature of ethical challenges and how games can impact reality beyond the screen.
This book not only does justice to the gamers' experience but also considers empirical research on the subject, rejecting both downplaying and alarmism.
