Klappentext zu „Raising the Stakes “
Competitive video and computer game play is nothing new. A new development in the world of digital gaming, however, is the emergence of professional computer game play, complete with star players, team owners, tournaments, sponsorships, and spectators.

And she examines the ongoing struggle over the gendered construction of play through the lens of male-dominated pro-gaming
