Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Intellectual Entertainments' consists of eight philosophical dialogues, each with five participants, some living, some imaginary and some dead. The dialogues take place either in Elysium or in an imaginary Oxford Common Room. Each historical figure speaks in his own idiom with a distinctive turn of phrase. The imaginary figures speak in the accent and idiom of their respective countries (English, Scottish, American, Australian). The themes are the nature of the mind and the relation between mind and body; the nature of consciousness and its demystification; the nature of thought and its relation to speech; and the objectivity or subjectivity of perceptual qualities such as colour, sound, smell, taste and warmth. Each participant presents a different point of view and defends his position against the arguments of the others. No philosophical knowledge is presupposed.

Book excerpt: In 1920, the Dominican monk Sertillanges wrote "The Intellectual Life: Its Spirit, Conditions, Methods," a masterpiece that proposed to address the Sixteen Precepts of Saint Thomas, but which gained practical substance for preparation during and after study. "The Intellectual Life" goes beyond observations for studies. They are completely perennial and fundamental methods for the development of humans as intelligent beings. Praised by intellectuals, critics, and specialized journalists like Olavo de Carvalho, Felipe Moura Brasil, among numerous others, the enduring success of "The Intellectual Life" is the greatest proof of its value.

Book excerpt: The intersection between intellectual property law and video games and immersive entertainment is exciting, fast-paced, and complex, as technology evolves at breakneck speed and often outpaces established case law. This one-of-kind handbook covers the intellectual property issues that game developers routinely wrestle with and need legal counsel about, from end-user license agreements to the scope and limitations of copyright protection to approaches for simulating reality without conflicting with existing trademark and brand rights of real-world companies, and more. Each chapter covers important IP issues involved with computer games and immersive entertainment, including end-user license agreements, copyrights, patents, trademarks, trade secrets, rights of publicity, and international considerations.
