Indeed, I would recommend Game Theory Evolving by Herb Ginitis. Human beings have a strong , repeat strong bias toward retaliating to maintain fairness. Varies culturally to only a small extent. Anything that raises the possibility that you'll just be taking off with their money is going to create a strong reaction. The mistake was taking pre-orders. Never take pre-orders if you're to delay shipping. You'll piss Max (and me, and everyone) off. I am not twenty-something, btw

The question of hedonic bias is more complex than the article indicates. I would recommend Game Theory Evolving by Herbert Gintis. Gintis talks about human short-term bias and hyperbolic discounting and shows that this is often not as "irrational" as it seems (look especially at Chapter 11). Still it's a great discussion, I'd love to see it much more developed, hopefully the article's author reads here.

What I have been reading recently is "Game Theory Evolving" by Herbert Gintis. The Wikipedia articles on signaling theory and evolutionary game theory are useful too.

…iprocal altruism in evolutionary biology and experimental game theory. "So, out of curiosity, do these "results in evolutionary game theory" have a source?" Here's one: "Game Theory Evolving" by Herbert Gintis; see Chapter 11. http://www.amazon.com/Game-Theory-Evolving-Herbert-Gintis/dp...
