April 7, 2025: Playing With Reality

I'm currently not-quite-halfway through Playing with Reality by Kelly Clancy. Now, one would typically wait until they've finished the book to write a review, so this isn't that, but it is a "hey I am currently reading this book and quite enjoying it" kind of post. Clancy's neuroscience background and historical perspective have been both fun and engaging for me – though with my own background, the opening chapters did leave me wanting a little more neuroscience. Don't get me wrong, her overview was masterful; I'm just a big ol' nerd.

I'm learning new things about history and greatly enjoying the retellings of stories I already knew from classes on computer science or cognitive psychology, and I'm looking forward to a (sure to come soon . . .) quiet afternoon where I can sit down and actually finish this book. If you're interested in how human and machine decision making are influenced by our understanding of games, then maybe check it out!
