520			_aThis book explores how people play and why their play matters, with a particular interest in how ludic experiences are often constructed and controlled by the interests of institutions, including corporations, non-profit organizations, government agencies, religious organizations, and non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Scholars of performance studies, leisure studies, media studies and sociology will find this book an essential reference when studying facets of play.
