According to the hobby game industry trade magazine Internal Correspondence,
it is looking like hobby games, including RPG's, are experiencing an across
the board (pardon the pun) booming growth period 3 years running, while video
game sales were down each year in 2010 and 2011 (still waiting on end of 2012
figures).

Mission: Clearly establish through rigorous scientific
testing the causal therapeutic and educational impact
of role-playing gaming on participants.
"Holistic medicine treats the person rather than the disease,
its concern lies with the 'whole person' and with permitting
individuals to assume self-responsibility for their own health.
Whereas illness is the sole concern of 'traditional medicine',
holistic 'well medicine' deals with wellness and health promotion"
