About six months ago, Steven Johnson's book, Everything Bad Is Good For You: How Today's Popular Culture Is Actually Making Us Smarter, started out with the idea of videogames. The above link is an excerpt from his blog about games.

Thanks Kelly. That was a great book.

Steven followed up with an article, printed in July in Discover Magazine. It should be accessible through library databases - here is the citation from Discover's website.
