Though this might interest some on the list; I'd be interested to  
hear any reactions to Nowak's work:

SCIENTIST AT WORK | MARTIN NOWAK
In Games, an Insight Into the Rules of Evolution
By CARL ZIMMER
Martin Nowak?s projects may seem randomly scattered across the  
sciences but they share an underlying theme: cooperation.

Looking at his selected list of publications (
http://www.ped.fas.harvard.edu/people/faculty/select_list.html) I'm very
interested in his work.

There are enough pdf's of papers linked to the publication list to delay any
further reaction by a few months.

Nick started us discussing this thread:

Hauert C, A Traulsen, H Brandt, MA Nowak, K Sigmund (2007). Via freedom to
coercion: the emergence of costly punishment. *Science* *316:* 1905-1907

just last week in the context of road rage.

I note the wide range of references to advanced work at the Harvard
"Program for Evolutionary Dynamics"  but find it very curiously
contradictory they should use that name.    I've searched and search and
I can find no one studying evolutionary dynamics interested in reviewing
a ground breaking paper on how to read dynamic flows in evolution !!!
The fault is definitely not in the work.    It's clear, thorough,
rigorous and productive.    A hundred people have looked at it and had
nothing to say about the analytical content, except to disqualify
themselves as reviewers, and offer scant suggestion as to who might be
interested or qualified.    What could be the problem...??

Phil,

I have your paper on my stack to look at when I can, as I am
interested in the topic. But you'll need to be patient, as I have a
lot of things ahead on the plate (including reviews of submissions to
ACAL'07).

Cheers

Here's what I don't quite get (and would be interested in knowing  
more about from those who understand priority): I read and was deeply  
influenced by "The Evolution of Cooperation" by Robert Axelrod,  
shortly after its 1984 publication. Axelrod ran a round-robin  
Prisoners Dilemma tournament, which yielded strategies he called "tit  
for tat" and "tit for two tats" as victors (depending on the  
conditions), and explored such matters (if memory serves) as  
recognition/reciprocity and recurrent contacts.

Why is there no mention of this in the Nowak stuff, which sounds  
oddly familiar to my non-technical ear?
