Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a scientific analysis and reevaluation of "co-operation," a largely unacknowledged force in biology. The author argues that co-operation among all forms of life is not just a human construct, but a universal biological phenomenon. Challenging the idea that only humans have a social nature, the author presents evidence of instinctive social behavior in animals from all levels of the animal kingdom, both simple and complex. The author traces the historical development of the concept of co-operation in biology and society, from its roots in Greek philosophy to contemporary scientific research.
