Over the past forty years, Western governments have increasinglyliberalized and deregulated gambling, which is now used to deliver staterevenues and commercial profit in many jurisdictions. Gambling for Profit is a cross-national history of the emergence oflegal gambling, including lotteries, gaming machines, and casinos.Gambling for Profit is unique among studies of gambling'stwentieth-century growth thanks to Kerry G.E. Chambers's strong analyticalframework investigating not only the political aspects of legalization, butalso the sociocultural factors that influence popular adoption. Chambersprovides a useful chronological examination of the electronic gamblingphenomenon, as well as comparative data on dates of introduction and revenues acrosstwenty-three countries. Gambling forProfit provides a dynamic model to explore the legalization of gambling andstresses the inadequacy of seeking universal explanations for gambling'sentrenchment within particular cultures.
