Download or read book The Survival Game written by David P. Barash and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2004-09 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barash synthesizes the newest ideas from psychology, economics, and biology to explore the roots of human strategy. Drawing on game theory -- the study of how individuals make decisions -- he delves into the give-and-take of scheduling plans with a spouse and the maneuvers of an arms race alongside the strategies of "less rational" animals. He explains the classice Hawk-Dove stand-off, where people opt to be aggressive or yielding, and draws analogies to the territorial battles of speckled wood butterfiles. The Prisoner's Dilemma, the Game of Chicken, and Follow the Leader turn up in examples as disparate as investor's picks in a market bubble and the mating antics of the yellow dung fly. Barash ultimately sheds light on what makes our decisions human, and what we can glean from game theory and the natural world as we negotiate and compete with others in our daily lives. - BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book Immersion Narrative and Gender Crisis in Survival Horror Video Games written by Andrei Nae and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-09 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the narrativity of some of the most popular survival horror video games and the gender politics implicit in their storyworlds. In a thorough analysis of the genre that draws upon detailed comparisons with the mainstream action genre, Andrei Nae places his analysis firmly within a political and social context. In comparing survival horror games to the dominant game design norms of the action genre, the author differentiates between classical and postclassical survival horror games to show how the former reject the norms of the action genre and deliver a critique of the conservative gender politics of action games, while the latter are more heterogeneous in terms of their game design and, implicitly, gender politics. This book will appeal not only to scholars working in game studies, but also to scholars of horror, gender studies, popular culture, visual arts, genre studies and narratology.

Download or read book Pinball Games written by George F. Eber and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Erwin Leichter played the Tiger Rag in the sealed-off ghetto, his situation was not for a moment less serious, but he was buoyant with youth. Pinball Games, illustrated by the author, tells a story of survival, sometimes through luck, sometimes by daring action, of a group of Hungarian friends through the darkest days of World War II, and later, as they escape from Communist Hungary to the free world. After a youth marked by golden days on the Danube, the author and many of his classmates are drafted into "the white armbands"- labor battalions of Christian Jews. They jump for their lives from a train bound for the death camps, and eventually make their way back to Budapest to live through the Siege of Budapest, one of the longest and least written about sieges of World War II. With peace come more golden days on the Danube, but they are illusions: Stalin's "Communist Agenda" forces more escapes. The author, his stepmother, and his father, whose business had been among the first private businesses seized in Budapest, successfully navigate land mines and wire fences to reach the West. "There might be difficult days ahead but I knew those years that called forth the greatest effort of my life were over," writes George F. Eber. "At the time of our escape, the term Iron Curtain was rather newly coined. To me it still meant the great metal fire-curtain in the Budapest theatres of my youth. Now the Iron Curtain had fallen behind us on the theatre of the macabre."

Download or read book Dangler written by Charles Gaines and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Kenneth Dangler, a very rich young WASP -- educated at Andover and Harvard, married to the equally rich, capricious Erica - -has settled on a business scheme with a certain "pith and moment" to it: Dangler's International Adventures Camp, in northern New Hampshire. Guests, all lilywhites of the rulingest class, pay $2000 a week to wrestle a tame bear, ride whitewater rapids (the bottom of the canoe is tracked to an underwater channel, so the danger is only illusory), and confront a carefully modified wilderness. But Andrew Cobb, an old schoolmate of Dangler's who is hired as the camp lawyer, watches while Dangler's aims embolden and his mission takes on serious intent: Dangler is now determined to toughen the rich so that they can re-take control of society. So he begins to make his wilderness encounters truly dangerous -- no more playacting. A Winter Expedition up the steep local mountain is the climax, with a very hokey, melodramatic turn -- a doublecross by the resort manager (who's dazzled by Dangler's wife Erica) -- that puts everyone in real life-and-death danger. Gaines (Stay Hungry) doesn't quite decide what he wants this book to be -- a Gatsby-ish meditation on the rich? a Thomas McGuane-like satire, aAla The Sporting Club? -- until rather late in the game. But by that time his strongest suit -- action writing -- has taken over and the winter climb on the icy slopes is legitimately gripping. With obvious indebtedness to films like Westworld: a sometimes overly ambitious and snide but generally taut novel, full of rich, if derivative, cinematic potential."--Kirkus
