EVE Online is a socially complex, science-fiction-themed universe simulation and massively multiplayer online game (MMOG) first released in 2003.
In this fascinating book, scholars, players, and EVE’s developer CCP Games examine the intricate world of EVE Online—providing authentic accounts of lived experience within a game with more than a decade of history and millions of “real” dollars behind it.
Internet Spaceships Are Serious Business is a must for EVE Online players interested in a broad perspective on their all-consuming game. It is also accessible to scholars, game designers, and even those who have never played this notoriously complex game.
