Recensione

'The subject is treated in considerable breadth and depth, ideas are developed as lines of argument throughout the book, and there is much to interest the reader, whether they may be a student, an interested general reader, a social scientist or even a policy maker.' Alain Schmitt, Human Ethology Newsletter

Descrizione del libro

While competitiveness has its place, cooperation and altruism are more important in many contexts. Here, authors from biology, philosophy and a variety of social sciences consider the nature of cooperation, altruism and prosocial behaviour between individuals, within and between groups, and between nations. Both the differences between these levels of social complexity, and the relations between them, are emphasised.
