Is there a source on the net with regards to [John von Neumann's]
game theory? Or a published source?
John von Neumann and Oskar Morgenstern co-authored a book in 1944
called `Theory of Games and Economic Behaviour'. (Perhaps it would
have been better had they called it `a theory of conflict and
cooperation'.)
In the Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_Games_and_Economic_Behavior
(This is a short entry.)
Also, take a look at the longer entry on John von Neumann himself:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_von_Neumann
Another phrase often used is `evolutionarily stable strategy':
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolutionarily_stable_strategy
(This is good entry; also, it talks about Nash Equilibria and the
Prisoner's Dilemma.)
I don't know what you might find using Google or one of the other
search engines.
I talk about game theory and an evolutionarily stable strategy for

representation.)
