Invisible rivals : how we evolved to compete in a cooperative world

by Jonathan R. Goodman, Robert A. Foley

This multidisciplinary study explores the tension between human cooperation and competition, synthesising anthropology, evolutionary biology, and philosophy. It examines how masking self-interest as collective benefit affects social trust and global crises like climate change.

brief_description
For centuries, people have argued about whether humans are moral animals--good or bad, cooperative or competitive, altruistic or selfish. In this book, Jonathan R. Goodman makes the case for synthesizing the two sides. Drawing on insights from anthropology, evolutionary biology, and philosophy, he argues that rather than being fundamentally cooperative or competitive, we are capable of being both -- and of exploiting each other when there is an opportunity to do so. -- Trove
