Simulating Science?

Více o knize

The exploration of cooperation through computer tournaments and simulations is central to this paper, focusing on Robert Axelrod's influential work from the early 1980s. It delves into the iterated prisoner's dilemma, a key model for understanding strategic interactions in evolutionary biology. The paper discusses the outcomes of these simulations and their implications for identifying stable strategies in cooperation. It emphasizes the philosophical significance of Axelrod's findings in the context of simulation and its role in theoretical discussions on cooperation.
