"[Cooperation research] is one of the busiest and most exciting areas of transdisciplinary science right now, linking evolution, ecology and social science. . . this is the first major work or collection to address linkages between archaeology and cooperation research."
--Michael E. Smith, Arizona State University

"Who will find this book interesting and important? Archaeologists, of course, but particularly those who do not normally pay much attention to developments in game theory, social intelligence theory, and theory of mind, and who are interested in the tension between Darwinian-leaning perspectives on human behavior, as opposed to group selection and even Lamarckian ones. I personally enjoyed the book and learned much from it, and I especially enjoyed the variety of perspectives and the internal mini-debates."
--David L. Webster, American Antiquity
