That Time article is linked on a bunch of fora, but none of them have a link (or reference) to the actual study.

Any idea if it's available? I suspect that Time's treatment of it is not as nuanced as the original authors would have liked, and even then, the Time article doesn't actually concur that "Greed is good". They just have that phrase in the headline.

I think this is the paper: http://www.nature.com/ncomms/2014/140326/ncomms4526/full/nco...

Thanks, much obliged. I wish articles would provide proper references!

If they did that, then more people would read the actual study and realize that the journalistic summary is completely full of it. Can't have that.
