Section titled “Evolutionarily Stable Strategy”A theoretical analysis is made of the evolution of behavioral strategies in contest situations. It is assumed that behavior will evolve so as to maximize individual fitness. If so, a population will evolve an ‘evolutionarily stable strategy’, or ESS, which can be defined as a strategy such that, if all members of a population adopt it, no ‘mutant’ strategy can do better. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0003347276801108
I’m rereading The Selfish Gene again to try to understand my thoughts on the stability of environments from a few years ago.
