 Election Citation

|
Axelrod has drawn from game theory a number of brilliant insights. His formal theory of conflict of interest has set a major research agenda in political institutions and behavior. His more recent work on the iterated prisoner's dilemma reveals one cooperative strategy that is empirically dominant, clarifying a persistent riddle in evolutionary biology. |
