Page "Evolutionarily stable strategy" Paragraph 2
from
Wikipedia
Evolutionarily stable strategies were defined and introduced by John Maynard Smith and George R. Price in a 1973 Nature paper.
Such was the time taken in peer-reviewing the paper for Nature that this was preceded by a 1972 essay by Maynard Smith in a book of essays titled On Evolution.
The 1972 essay is sometimes cited instead of the 1973 paper, but university libraries are much more likely to have copies of Nature.
Papers in Nature are usually short ; in 1974, Maynard Smith published a longer paper in the Journal of Theoretical Biology.
In fact, the ESS has become so central to game theory that often no citation is given, as the reader is assumed to be familiar with it.
