The Possibility of Cooperation - Michael Taylor (Anarchism, Game Theory)
The Math behind Anarchism.
Michael Taylor, an anarchist and game theory expert, irrefutably answers every possible criticism of anarchy's unworkability by proving mathematically how rationality and collective action are linked.
This book is a revised and expanded edition of the author's 'Anarchy and Cooperation', originally published with John Wiley. It offers a high-level critique of the liberal theory of the state, focusing on a detailed study of cooperation in the absence of the state and of other kinds of coercion. The discussion includes an analysis of collective action and of the Prisoner's Dilemma supergame. It will be of interest to a range of readers in political and social philosophy and in economics.
Cambridge, 1987
This extended edition has less math and is open to a wider audience than his previous work Community, Anarchy and Liberty.

A popular treatment in media of The Prisoner's Dilemma is given by Adam Curtis in his BBC documentary called The Trap which is available here on OBT.
As I recall, the element of Cooperation was found in practiced experiments where it was not predicted in game theory.
The important thing to get from this is that, like all Curtis' work, he shows how our science has been used against us by commerce and politicians.
