The Warcraft Civilization: Social Science in a Virtual World by William Sims Bainbridge

1.0

I was under the impression this book would discuss the wonderful digital communities that are formed in World of Warcraft from a sociological perspective. Instead, this book is a ridiculously detailed discussion of Warcraft lore and the author's roleplaying.
