These Notes grew from my research in evolutionary biology,
specifically on the theory of evolutionarily stable strategies (ESS
theory), over the past ten years. Personally, evolutionary game
theory has given me the opportunity to transfer my enthusiasm for
abstract mathematics to more practical pursuits. I was fortunate to
have entered this field in its infancy when many biologists
recognized its potential but were not prepared to grant it general
acceptance. This is no longer the case. ESS theory is now a rapidly
expanding (in both applied and theoretical directions) force that
no evolutionary biologist can afford to ignore. Perhaps, to
continue the life-cycle metaphor, ESS theory is now in its late
adolescence and displays much of the optimism and exuberance of
this exciting age. There are dangers in writing a text about a
theory at this stage of development. A comprehensive treatment
would involve too many loose ends for the reader to appreciate the
central message. On the other hand, the current central message may
soon become obsolete as the theory matures. Although the restricted
topics I have chosen for this text reflect my own research bias, I
am confident they will remain the theoretical basis of ESS theory.
Indeed, I feel the adult maturity of ESS theory is close at hand
and I hope the text will play an important role in this
achievement.
