Why Humans Cooperate

Cooperation among humans is one of the keys to our great evolutionary success. This book examines this phenomena with a fusion of theoretical work on the evolution of cooperation, ethnographic descriptions of social behavior, and a range of other experimental results.

I recommend this book as in introduction to the field. It is comprehensive and clearly written.
