Entertainment and Video Games (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781422245415)

Video games and entertainment media are meant to be fun, but games and television shows have also been no stranger to controversy. Politicians, teachers, and parents groups have accused them of glorifying violence, leading to a sedentary lifestyle, and other issues. Others note the potential benefits of entertainment media. The discussion is not clear-cut, and as such, the consensus can be difficult to grasp. This book aims to provide much-needed perspective. The CONTEMPORARY ISSUES series is intended to give young readers a better understanding of major social issues today. Each book examines four key questions related to a controversial topic, with essays that detail the most commonly heard arguments on both sides of the discussion. The arguments contained within are supported by data from experts as well as nonpartisan reports, allowing the reader to make his or her own informed decision on the issue.
