Modeling social and evolutionary games.

Studies in history and philosophy of biological and biomedical sciences - 1 Mar 2012

Abstract excerpt

When game theory was introduced to biology, the components of classic game theory models were replaced with elements more befitting evolutionary phenomena. The actions of intelligent agents are replaced by phenotypic traits; utility is replaced by fitness; rational deliberation is replaced by natural selection. In this paper, I argue that this classic conception of comprehensive reapplication is misleading, for...
