Abstract

This chapter presents the reasoning, motivation, relevance of the research subject, in addition to the methodological approaches employed, along with the structure through which the book’s theoretical, empirical concerns will be addressed.

It is a commonwealth in which work is play and play is life.

George Bernard Shaw (1904)
