Editorial Review Product Description In Powering Up, Rebecca Mileham looks at the facts behind the headlines to see what effect this epidemic of game-playing is really having on us and the society we live in. Is it making us obese, anti-social, violent and addicted… or just giving us different ways of getting cleverer, fitter and more skilled? She examines the evidence, from experts and gamers alike, and asks some controversial and thought-provoking questions: If you're part of the gaming revolution yourself, or are just curious to know what's fact and what's fiction in the media coverage of this topic, then this is the book for you. About the author Rebecca Mileham has written for the Sunday Times, She magazine, and for museums all over the UK. In ten years at the Science Museum, London, she developed exhibitions on topics as diverse as Charles Babbage's Difference Engines, robotic submarines, face transplants and the male pill. http://www.rebecca.mileham.net/ Customer Reviews (1)

A solid read! The book is written simply andconcepts are easily grasped. As a bonus, each chapter includes a 'Questionsfrom the Field' section, in which FAQs about subjects relating to thechapter are answered.In short, Edson and Dean stick to facts and keep itsimple. Due to large field of subjects covered, do not expect a technicaldissertation in each chapter.This may not bode well with some people,however I feel the information contained applies to all skill levels andpositions in the museum field. 'Handbook for Museums' is an excellentread; it's great for both classroom study or working reference.Definitelya 'Thumbs Up'! ... Read more |
