Book Review - The Price of Altruism - By Oren Harman - NYTimes.com
"But “The Price of Altruism” is about far more than Price himself. It covers the entire 150-year history of scientists’ researching, debating and bickering about a theoretical problem that lies at the core of behavioral biology, sociobiology and evolutionary psychology: Why is it that organisms sacrifice themselves for the benefit of others?"
Sounds like a good read both for those who have an interest in the altruism puzzle and like the histrory of ideas in general.
