They now include the fields of health, education, work, the media and many others. However, the human and social sciences still neglect the analysis and critique of gamification.\u003cp\u003e Research conducted in this area tends to focus on game objects and not gamification�s logic as its ideological dimension. Considering that the game, as a model and a reference, laden with social value, deserves to be questioned beyond its objects, The \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGamification of Society\u003c\/i\u003e gathers together texts, observations and criticisms that question the influence that games and their �mechanics� have on wider society. The empirical research presented in this book (examining designers� practices, early childhood, political action, the quantified self, etc.) also probes several different national contexts - those of Norway, Belgium, the United States and France, among others.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stéphane Le Lay\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 178630645X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781786306456\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley-Iste\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/27\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stéphane Le Lay","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44077363331327,"sku":"9781786306456","price":177.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_28a6e621-daa9-44cf-9df4-792adf087d8d.jpg?v=1685469555","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-gamification-of-society-le-lay-9781786306456","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
