The Phenomena of Gambling
Presenter: Peter Harris
In this presentation Peter explored the existential issues that lie within the action of gambling, particularly the phenomenon of problem gambling, both from a philosophical and a therapeutic practice. The presentation also looked at how these insights might be used to assist an individual struggling with a history of problemmatic gambling behaviour, and how to maintain both a helpful, therapeutic and ethical response.
