Book excerpt: From the time San Jose was founded by the Spanish in 1777 as California's first civilian settlement, the city has had its share of risk-taking in one way or another. San Jose began as a small settlement of farmers who produced food for the presidios in San Francisco and Monterey. In their free time, the farmers enjoyed a few games of cards despite the strict rules of the Spanish military. Present-day San Jose has become filled with high-tech engineers risking everything to develop the next successful start-up company. San Jose had a lot of gambling between these times--from the illegal speakeasy-type clubs that featured games such as dice, fan-tan, roulette, Chinese lotteries, and, of course, slot machines to the small legal card clubs consisting of one to ten tables filled with people playing games such as pan, lowball, and poker, that would eventually become two of Northern California's largest cardrooms, which generate millions of dollars every year.

The book draws on the author’s 20 years of gambling addiction, the trials and tribulations of users from a self-help community started in 2003 (GamblingHelper.com), and the latest scientific findings. The book discusses the symptoms, triggers, and causes of gambling addiction from the perspectives of biology, psychology, environment, economics, and spirituality. The book includes solutions to overcome the disease based on the most current research. The Gamblers Anonymous program was founded in 1957 and is based on Alcoholics Anonymous, which was founded in 1935. New and important findings on compulsive gambling have been found since that time. This book discusses these new findings. Gambling addiction can be overcome and this book shows you how.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This intriguing book offers a comprehensive examination of all issues related to sports and criminal behavior, from high school to professional athlete, player to spectator. Fair or Foul: Sports and Criminal Behavior in the United States is an examination of the intersection of these two increasingly connected worlds. The book was written to answer two questions. First, is there a relationship between athletic participation and criminal behavior? Second, what other connections—positive or negative—exist between sports and crime? To arrive at his answers, author Christopher S. Kudlac surveys professional, college, and high school sports in relation to crime, spectator crime, and gambling. Other topics include how urban sports programs help deter kids from getting involved in crime and how the use of sports in prisons has worked to positive effect. The book also examines the issues of aggression, masculinity, commercial incentives (or disincentives), and other contributing factors that may spur illegal activity among athletes and spectators. Looking at the subject from the perspectives of criminal justice and forensic psychology, Kudlac is able to uncover just how intertwined the two worlds are—for better or for worse.

Book excerpt: There are two distinct strands in the literature on gambling: one that focuses on how to play and win the various games of chance and one that focuses on gambling compulsion and addiction. Gambling and Gender forges a new direction, studying gambling as more communication than compulsion, more recreation than deviance, more sociology than psychology. Within that framework it seeks to explore several aspects of gender: How do the gambling behaviors of men and women differ? How have women adapted to and/or changed the historically male dominance of the gambling arena? What gambling activities have women claimed as their own and used to develop uniquely female relationships? How have recent trends in technology and mass media changed the ways in which men and women claim - or reject - their gender identities? The authors use a variety of research strategies, including content analysis, survey research, interviews, and participative observation, to shed new light on this fascinating subject and to suggest ways to explore it further.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though there is some evidence to suggest that Asian populations are at relatively high risk for disordered gambling, there is a dearth of scientific literature about rates of gambling and pathological gambling among Asians and Latinos in general, and Asian American sub groups and Mexican-Americans specifically. The existing literature suffers from small sample sizes, a lack of comparison groups and ethnic population non-specificity. This dissertation will focus on comparing the frequency of gambling behavior, frequency of pathological gambling behavior, gambling addiction acceptance, and help seeking behaviors in an adult community sample of 145 Chinese, 384 Vietnamese, 201 Filipino and 269 Mexican-American and 156 White individuals living in San Jose, California to that of White Americans in the United States. Secondary data analysis was conducted on data gathered by the Problem Gambling Alliance Community Survey. Mexican-American adults were utilized as a comparison group to see whether the gambling habits and help seeking behaviors of Filipinos are closer to Asian or Latino trends. Analyses showed that Chinese, Vietnamese, Filipino and Mexican-American respondents were significantly less likely to endorse gambling behavior than White respondents and that the differences between endorsed gambling behaviors between Chinese, Vietnamese, Filipino and Mexican-American respondents was non-significant. No significant differences were found between the frequency of pathological gambling behavior of Chinese, Vietnamese, Filipino, Mexican-American and White respondents. Results also showed that, overwhelmingly, respondents from all ethnicities queried believed that gambling can become and addiction to a similar extent. Finally, findings showed that while all respondents were more likely than not to seek help when they or someone close to them had a gambling problem, Vietnamese and Filipino respondents were significantly less likely to do so than Chinese, Mexican-American and White respondents. The implications of this study of these results and future research directions are discussed.
