Download or read book Darklands written by Arnav Das Sharma and published by Penguin Random House India Private Limited. This book was released on 2021-02-15 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dust and ash engulf the land, dry rivers snake the earth and a phantom darkness looms over everyone. As most of India reels from this environmental catastrophe, water replaces oil as the most valuable commodity and cities get infested with gangs and powerful religious figures. In this dystopia, the hi-tech Millennium City, which is inhabited by the rich, overlooks the quarters of the poor. Millennium City gives rise to a form of technology that manufactures artificial humans in laboratories. Born in one such lab, Haksh does the forbidden: he falls in love with Chhaya, a human. A coming-of-age novel about violence and transgression, Darklands is about one thing above all: love-both all-consuming and redemptive.
Download or read book Historia Ludens written by Alexander von Lünen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-08-30 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to further a debate about aspects of "playing" and "gaming" in connection with history. Reaching out to academics, professionals and students alike, it pursues a dedicated interdisciplinary approach. Rather than only focusing on how professionals could learn from academics in history, the book also ponders the question of what academics can learn from gaming and playing for their own practice, such as gamification for teaching, or using "play" as a paradigm for novel approaches into historical scholarship. "Playing" and "gaming" are thus understood as a broad cultural phenomenon that cross-pollinates the theory and practice of history and gaming alike.
