A recent video by AsapSCIENCE explains why nice guys finish first, not last as the old aphorism goes, by explaining the benefits of altruism and the best strategy for solving the prisoner’s dilemma. The video is based on the book The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins, and it makes a pretty clear case for why it is more beneficial in the long run to help others.
