Desmond Morris
Desmond John Morris is an English zoologist, ethologist, and surrealist painter born in 1928.
He gained widespread recognition for his 1967 book The Naked Ape, which examined human behavior from a zoological perspective.
Morris's work in human sociobiology made him a popular author and television personality, hosting programs such as Zoo Time.
His approach to studying humans as animals sparked both interest and controversy.
Morris's background in zoology, particularly his experience as curator of the London Zoo, informed his unique perspective on human evolution and social behavior.
His work has been influential in bridging the gap between scientific research and popular understanding of human nature.
