Addiction by Design is a book written by Natasha Dow Schüll that describes Machine Gambling in Las Vegas.[1] It offers an analysis of machine gambling and the intensified forms of consumption that computer-based technologies enable and the innovations that deliberately enhance and sustain the 'zone' which extreme machine gamblers yearn.

The book received attention lately again in connection to how our current information technology does make us addicted.[2]
