What are the relations between cultural policies and cultural politics? Too often, none at all. In the history of cultural studies so far, there has been no shortage of discussion of cultural politics. Only rarely, however, have such discussions taken account of the policy instruments through which cultural activities and institutions are funded and regulated in the mundane politics of bureaucratic and corporate life. Culture: Policies and Politics addresses this imbalance. The books in this series interrogate the role of culture in the organization of social relations of power, including those of class, nation, ethnicity and gender. They also explore the ways in which political agendas in these areas are related to, and shaped by, policy processes and outcomes. In its commitment to the need for a fuller and clearer policy calculus in the cultural sphere, Culture: Policies and Politics aims to promote a significant transformation in the political ambit and orientation of cultural studies and related fields. |

Inside the Gambler's Mind is a thoughtful overview of the various facets of gambling that are important to understand in order to appreciate the implications of the current proliferation of gambling in North America and abroad. Spanier includes pithy anecdotes from both sides of the Atlantic that explain the transformation of gambling from an illegal activity to a legal one. Spanier explores the experience of gambling from the viewpoint of a number of intriguing people: from the statistician who developed a system for beating blackjack dealers, to the aristocratic European gambler who liberalized British gaming law, and from the minister who founded Gamblers' Anonymous to the psychologist who pioneered problem gambling treatment programs. Inside the Gambler's Mind, originally published in 1987, pulls together loose threads in the world of gambling - including perspectives of gamblers, casino operators, academic researchers, and regulators - and provides a colorful look at the thrills, the action, and the intense emotional involvement that make up gambling. |
