New Book, Gamification By Design, Showcased at Gamification Summit

August 19, 2011

Gamification expert Gabe Zichermann will showcase his second book, Gamification By Design, at The Gamification Summit September 15-16 in New York City. The new release, which launched on Amazon.com today, will be on sale during the Summit. Zichermann will also host a concentrated design session filled with "revelations and profound insights" learned from his work with the world’s biggest brands, hottest startups and a range of non-profits.

"With increasing demand for gamification instruction and certification around the upcoming Gamification Summit, the timing of this book couldn’t be better,” said Gabe Zichermann, author of Gamification by Design and chairman of GSummit. “I believe that any passionate product designer, marketer, strategist, UI/UX expert or entrepreneur can apply the principles of Gamification to his/her product. This book is designed to make that possible."

Gamification by Design forms a foundation for the recently-announced Gamification Design Certificate Program, which is being Offered for the first time at GSummit. The certificate program is based around "a set of scalable and proven methodologies for implementing gamification in a product, service or workplace."
