Between vs. Among: Usage Guide
There is a persistent but unfounded notion that between can be used only of two items and that among must be used for more than two. Between has been used of more than two since Old English; it is especially appropriate to denote a one-to-one relationship, regardless of the number of items. It can be used when the number is unspecified
economic cooperation between nations
, when more than two are enumerated
between you and me and the lamppost
partitioned between Austria, Prussia, and Russia 
Nathaniel Benchley
Nathaniel Benchley , and even when only one item is mentioned (but repetition is implied).
pausing between every sentence to rap the floor George Eliot
George Eliot Among is more appropriate where the emphasis is on distribution rather than individual relationships.
discontent among the peasants
When among is automatically chosen for more than two, English idiom may be strained.
a worthy book that nevertheless falls among many stools John Simon
John Simon the author alternates among mod slang, clichés and quotes from literary giants A. H. Johnston
A. H. Johnston
