Games and Philosophy 2017

Games and Philosophy

Conferences organized at the
Istituto Filosofico di Studi Tomistici

On February 15th, in Modena, Dario De Toffoli talked about Gambling at the course of Games and Philosophy. From the birth of public games in the Middle Ages to the crazy ubique gaming machines of Italy in these days. Thoughts about games, with a special attention to the world of hazard. The distinction between gaming addiction and gambling addiction. Let’s break the toy: the mathematics of gambling. And then…  Dario played a bit together with anyone that resisted until then.

This course has been organized by the Istituto Filosofico Studi Tomistici, in collaboration with Play Res and the Group of games research Unimore.
