The book is a good read. Meaning that the text is easily read and understood. Gee provides some not so intuitive observations about RPGs and MMOGs with respect to their potential to influence curriculum and instruction.

A very interesting look at various game and their possible application in the classroom. I'd recommend his other book first, but this one offers a nice collection of essays that further some of his earlier arguments.
