A game designer's journey to recovery and a revolutionary new approach to self-help. After a brain injury, Jane McGonigal created a game to aid her recovery and overcome depression. The game's impact was astonishing, with half a million players reporting significant improvements in just six weeks. This book shares the story behind the game and shows how its principles can be applied to everyday life.
McGonigal reveals how simple changes can have dramatic effects, using her own story and those of others to illustrate the power of a "gameful" mindset. With practical, step-by-step ideas, you can transform your life and discover a more positive, resilient you.
