A Cooperative Species
Human Reciprocity and Its Evolution
Book •
In 'A Cooperative Species', Samuel Bowles and Herbert Gintis provide a compelling account of human cooperation, arguing that it cannot be fully explained by kinship or reciprocity alone.
They propose that group-level competition and the co-evolution of genes and culture played crucial roles in shaping human cooperation.
The book draws on experimental, archaeological, genetic, and ethnographic data to support its arguments.
