Dear all, I am hoping some of the researchers on the list would be interested in a recent book I wrote called 'Enjoying It: Candy Crush and Capitalism <http://www.bookdepository.com/Enjoying-it-Alfie-Bown/9781785351556?ref=grid -view> ' which came out with Zero Books. There is an idea of the project here <http://thenewinquiry.com/essays/seconds-of-pleasure/> and a 5 minute video about it here <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UW9oF3OPzqQ> . If there is any interest in the project, I am now working with Zero Books and looking to solicit some book proposals for the publisher in the fields of videogames, technology and the internet. Zero Books publish shorter books of around 20k-30k words and print affordable paperbacks that can be fairly widely disseminated. If you are interested in submitting a proposal for a book which you think might be a match, feel free to get in touch.
