Product Description Aimed toward alienated youth, Hunting, Gathering, & Videogames explains why we have to work (tracing the common link between the workday of prehistory's huntergatherer and today's videogame programmer), and offers a guideline for an alternative measure of "success." From the Author From Kirkus Discoveries (August 8, 2005): "Gates elaborates upon the ageold advice of parents to childrenget a jobin this winsome ... treatise on political economy. Gates's writing is strong ... His Stoic combination of pragmatism and renunciation ultimately strikes a chord. His defense of remunerative employment makes the book a great graduation present from anxious parents to slacker offspring, while his defense of untaxing, ambitionless employment makes it a good graduation present from slacker offspring to anxious parents." About the Author Todd's first career was in music: playing piano for dance classes, cable television, OffOff Broadway shows, road bands (cover material), and pretentious rockstarwannabe bands (bad original material) ... but mostly waiting tables. Since the 1990s he's been working an office job and playing piano and guitar for his children's grade school.
