    Intresting topic on the link above

     

    Evolution does not favour selfish people, according to new research.

    This challenges a previous theory which suggested it was preferable to put yourself first.

    Instead, it pays to be co-operative, shown in a model of "the prisoner's dilemma", a scenario of game theory - the study of strategic decision-making.
