+Approximate Moran Process
+=========================
+
+Due to the high computational cost of a single Moran process, an approximate
+Moran process is implemented that can make use of cached outcomes of games. The
+following code snippet will generate a Moran process in which a `Defector`
+cooperates (gets a high score) against another `Defector`. First the cache is
+built by passing counter objects of outcomes::
+
+    >>> from collections import Counter
+    >>> cached_outcomes = {}
+    >>> cached_outcomes[("Cooperator", "Defector")] = axl.Pdf(Counter([(0, 5)]))
+    >>> cached_outcomes[("Cooperator", "Cooperator")] = axl.Pdf(Counter([(3, 3)]))
+    >>> cached_outcomes[("Defector", "Defector")] = axl.Pdf(Counter([(10, 10), (9, 9)]))
+
+Now let us create an Approximate Moran Process::
+
+    >>> axl.seed(0)
+    >>> players = [axl.Cooperator(), axl.Defector(), axl.Defector(), axl.Defector()]
+    >>> amp = axl.ApproximateMoranProcess(players, cached_outcomes)
+    >>> results = amp.play()
+    >>> amp.population_distribution()
+    Counter({'Defector': 4})

+Moran Process on Graphs
+=======================
+
+The library also provides a graph-based Moran process [Shakarian2013]_ with
+:code:`MoranProcessGraph`.  To use this class you must supply at least one
+:code:`Axelrod.graph.Graph` object, which can be initialized with just a list of
+edges::
+
+    edges = [(source_1, target1), (source2, target2), ...]
+
+The nodes can be any hashable object (integers, strings, etc.). For example::
+
+    >>> from axelrod.graph import Graph
+    >>> edges = [(0, 1), (1, 2), (2, 3), (3, 1)]
+    >>> graph = Graph(edges)
+
+Graphs are undirected by default. Various intermediates such as the list of
+neighbors are cached for efficiency by the graph object.
+
+A Moran process can be invoked with one or two graphs. The first graph, the
+*interaction graph*, dictates how players are matched up in the scoring phase.
+Each player plays a match with each neighbor. The second graph dictates how
+players replace another during reproduction. When an individual is selected to
+reproduce, it replaces one of its neighbors in the *reproduction graph*. If only
+one graph is supplied to the process, the two graphs are assumed to be the same.
+
+To create a graph-based Moran process, use a graph as follows::
+
+    >>> from axelrod.graph import Graph
+    >>> axl.seed(40)
+    >>> edges = [(0, 1), (1, 2), (2, 3), (3, 1)]
+    >>> graph = Graph(edges)
+    >>> players = [axl.Cooperator(), axl.Cooperator(), axl.Cooperator(), axl.Defector()]
+    >>> mp = axl.MoranProcessGraph(players, interaction_graph=graph)
+    >>> results = mp.play()
+    >>> mp.population_distribution()
+    Counter({'Cooperator': 4})
+
+You can supply the `reproduction_graph` as a keyword argument. The standard Moran
+process is equivalent to using a complete graph for both graphs.
