This is a cool, but short (at 28 minutes or so), discussion on how cooperation may have been one of the most power fuels for human evolution. The book is SuperCooperators: Altruism, Evolution, and Why We Need Each Other to Succeed by Martin Nowak and Roger Highfield.
Another great offering from the RSA.
