So these concepts I find pretty interesting. I would like to
see research done on peoples’ levels of theory of mind and how it correlates
with personal success. Success can be achieved through both cooperation and
deception. Which is more effective? Our book mentions that chimps are very
competitive among each other, so cooperation is uncommon. Bonobos, who are a
little closer to humans are much more peaceful and cooperative. Humans are
(slightly) more cooperative that bonobos, but display exceptional skills of
deception. Studying these types of things may be critical for achieving some
type of peace on this war-torn planet.
