15-18 Jan 2022. What is the Earth school Mission, preliminary reference: Finite and Infinite Games by JP Carse.
During this full moon, and Mercury retrograde period, I am presenting this information, as a deeper, further understanding of the message.
Within the introduction of the full-length (4hr.) video content for my channel, I broached the subject of this book. I decided that I needed to spend more time with this work, and this topic.
So, as more than a rudimentary introduction, I'd like to introduce you to "research" of a different type.

From the author's website:
"In the early ‘Eighties, NYU Professor William Zartman gathered about a dozen faculty from as many departments to discuss game theory, each from the perspective of our own academic field. Zartman was in Political Science. Math and the sciences were well represented, as were the social sciences. I was to be the philosopher. Game theory, it became clear at once, is a maddeningly subtle subject, especially in its mathematical and scientific expressions.
"As the weekly discussions–and the presented papers–made clear, game theory had chiefly to do with winning conflicts, or minimizing losses where winning was impossible. Without advanced mathematical skills, I found myself reflecting on the nature of play itself, especially play that saw no value in winning, or even play that actively avoided winning.
"The result was a 150 page book initially published in 1986 by The Free Press. Still in print and published in a dozen or more languages, the entire first chapter reads:
"There are at least two kinds of games. One could be called finite, the other infinite. A finite game is played for the purpose of winning, an infinite game for the purpose of continuing the play.
"Although it may be obvious, it is worth stressing that “play,” as it is used here does not mean merely “playing around.” Play, in this discussion, is a metaphor for any number of complex human engagements whenever they take on a competitive, or cooperative, character. Corporations, for example, not only compete with each other but are in themselves populations of strivers, each trying to supplant another, each struggling for higher incomes and titles. The same applies to schools and colleges where attaining superior grade averages, degrees, and honors absorb the lives of students. Sexuality and marriage are often finite battle grounds with winners and losers. In fact, the features of play–finite and infinite–are essentially the same whether we are children playing jacks or soldiers caught up in a war between nations."
