Heath shows how rational choice theory can be modified in order to incorporate rule-following as a general feature of rational action. Human rationality is a byproduct of the "language upgrade" that we receive over the course of cultural evolution. This creates an indissoluble bond between rational deliberation and deontic constraint.
