Frans de Waal: You're a Monkey!

In this presentation, world-renowned primatologist Frans de Waal makes the case that we would all be much happier if we paid attention to the basic principles of cooperative and social behavior that most primates are sensitive to.

We may normally think of ourselves as the culmination of evolution, and as purely rational beings, but if we look at the psychological and behavioral similarities between the rest of primates and us, we'd have to conclude, as you already know, that we're all monkeys :)
