…hours alone to master and execute, as in doing mathematical proofs, solving problems in theoretical physics, unraveling computer programming problems or writing highly technical tracks. These activities can be aided by the personality inclinations of shyness and distantiation, th...

interconnectivity to humans for millennia. Just as computers have capacities and processes that are transduced through but extend far beyond the hardware of a single computer, the human brain has evolved to promote social and cultural capacities and processes that are transduced...

… reader is surely familiar, there is ample evidence for the Repeated Prisoner’s Dilemma as a basis for cooperation from computer simulations (e.g., Axelrod, 1984) and animal behavior (e.g., Wilkinson, 1984). The model can be extended to explain contributions to public goods if, a...
