Description

Self-Assembling Games explores the theory of how evolutionary games emerge from basic interactions and evolve through continued play. Jeffrey A. Barrett provides an incisive analysis of hierarchical, dialogue, and network-style games, demonstrating how trial-and-error learners coevolve meaningful language and inferential capacities. The book examines how social structures that enable more reliable learning develop organically, and how learning itself becomes increasingly sophisticated throughout the process. This philosophical exploration combines game theory, linguistics, and cognitive science to offer fresh insights into the mechanisms of communication, cooperation, and intellectual development. Ideal for researchers, educators, and students interested in the intersections of mathematics, language evolution, and learning theory.
