Some Prisoner's Dilemma Links
I offer a few of my favorite WWW links regarding this
topic. There are many links about the Prisoner's Dilemma to
be found on the WWW. What I offer here are a few of those that
contain more than just its definition. These links, in addition,
discuss decision strategies, variations of the Prisoner's Dilemma,
and the consequences of Prisoner's Dilemma decisions.
My favorite. It discusses the Prisoner's Dilemma
and its many variations (iterative, asynchronous, multiple players,
asymmetry, payoff types, error, strategies, and evolution).
