Recenzii
"This is a massive work, its sweep is majestic. It attempts nothing less than a reading of the past two centuries of American life through the metaphor of life as a game." Norman K. Denzin, American Journal of Sociology
"...we now have the play-game critical text that will become standard in American culture study. Oriard dazzles the reader with play's suppleness and scope." Christian K. Messenger, American Historical Review
