Good book to understand Gandhian philosophy. Essentially, he has tried to work around game theoretic limitations by appealing to wisdom. Maybe, by creating a vibe across the society, and maintaining a better environment, a culture which avoids the pitfalls of prisoner's dilemma can be created. Since it's not an equilibrium state, I don't know how it can be sustained over large populations (in tribes it would work much better). But, Gandhi's was a close attempt. Apart from ahimsa and passive resistance, Gandhi's personal ideas about industrialisation, education, healthcare etc. seem to be half-baked at that point in time. Typographical errors in the edition I had read made the reading experience bad.
