Frans de Waal
An absorbing and enlightening talk by a man who studies animals without too much human prejudice


What happens when two monkeys are paid unequally? Fairness, reciprocity, empathy, cooperation -- caring about the well-being of others seems like a very human trait. But Frans de Waal shares some surprising videos of behavioral tests, on primates and other mammals, that show how many of these moral traits all of us share.

This talk was presented to a local audience at TEDxPeachtree, an independent event. TED's editors chose to feature it for you.
