An Unsafe Bet? The Dangerous Rise
of Gambling and the Debate
We Should Be
Having reveals how gambling represents a danger to
public health due to its inherent addiction potential, which is
being intentionally downplayed by the gambling industry and
governments.
- Lays bare the extent of gambling and its effects on society
- Exposes the dilemma for policy makers, who are charged with protecting public health but also increasingly dependent on revenues earned from gambling
- Written by Jim Orford, an internationally respected authority on the topic
- International examples broaden the argument and reveal the global stakes involved
