YouTube - Nice Guys Finish First (1/5) - Richard Dawkins

YouTube - Nice Guys Finish First (1/5) - Richard Dawkins: "First (of five) part of the 1986 documentary from the BBC Horizon series. In this video Richard Dawkins explains how natural selection can favour co-operation in nature, so long as it is of benefit to the selfish gene....in their attempts to earn real money, players must wrestle with a dilemma - whether to follow their natural instincts of co-operation or the dictates of reason and behave selfishly."

Interesting. Surprisingly (to me) this aired in 1986.
