To celebrate the release of its new issue on play, Greater Good magazine is hosting a panel discussion that will reveal the newest facts about video game play, and what guidelines they suggest for parents, teachers, kids, and the people who create video games.

The panel will feature Harvard Medical School psychologist Lawrence Kutner, whose new book Grand Theft Childhood? reports the results of his landmark study on the effects of video games on teenagers. Kutner's presentation will be followed by questions and responses from a panel of experts in child psychology and video game development.
