Reviews

Boulter makes an important and original contribution to discussions of posthumanism and a compelling intervention into the discussion of digital games. His style is accessible without sacrificing theoretical complexity, and his descriptions of gameplay and gamespace are concrete and compelling.--Sherryl Vint professor of science fiction media studies at the University of California, Riverside and author of The Wire (Wayne State University Press, 2013) Though Parables of the Posthuman will primarily interest scholars of philosophy and posthumanism, the book may also appeal to game designers who desire a deeper understanding of the player experience.--J. M. Smith CHOICE (06/01/2016)
