The Evolution of Cooperation provides valuable insights into the age-old question of whether unforced cooperation is ever possible. Widely praised and much-discussed, this classic book explores how cooperation can emerge in a world of self-seeking egoists-whether superpowers, businesses, or individuals-when there is no central authority to police their actions. The problem of cooperation is central to many different fields. Robert Axelrod recounts the famous computer tournaments in which the cooperative" program Tit for Tat recorded its stunning victories, explains its application to a broad spectrum of subjects, and suggests how readers can both apply cooperative principles to their own lives and teach cooperative principles to others.

I guess that tells you what I genuinely think of this book." --Douglas Hofstadter, author of Goedel, Escher, Bach "Our ideas of cooperation will never be the same."--The Wall Street Journal "A fascinating introduction to the theory of cooperation, and written in a clear, informal style that makes it a joy to read." --Times Literary Supplement
