We play games to learn about the world, to understand our minds and the minds of others, and to make predictions about the future. They’re also a lot of fun. But what happens when we mistake games for reality? ‘Playing With Reality’ explores the riveting history of games since the Enlightenment, weaving an unexpected path through military theory, biology, artificial intelligence, neuroscience, cognitive psychology, and the future of democracy.
