Claims games are to blame for the financial crisis. She believes that the current generation of bankers grew up playing video games and video games make you more reckless. She is a neuroscientist and believes video games effect the prefrontal cortext of the brain which apparently makes people more reckless if it is compromised or under-active.

2.Brains shaped by environment.
3.Screens creates a world dominated by sensation and process reather than, content, significance and narrative.
