A Fellow of the British Psychological Society and the Royal Society of Arts, he is the recipient of numerous prestigious career and research awards, including a lifetime achievement award from the US Institute for the Study of Gambling and Commercial Gaming for his "pioneering contributions to the field of youth gambling".

Following a new introduction from the author, its opening part considers addiction in a general sense, with subsequent sections devoted to gambling addiction (online and offline), gaming and internet addiction. Taken as a whole, they provide a unique snapshot of the field that will indispensable to scholars, researchers and students of the psychology of addictive behavior. |
