William Woo
William Woo is a prominent figure in the field of reciprocal altruism, a concept in evolutionary biology. He studied how individuals in social groups benefit by helping each other, with the expectation of mutual aid in the future. His work explores how cooperative behavior can be stable and advantageous for species, including humans, by fostering trust and reciprocal exchanges. Woo's research helps us understand the biological and social mechanisms that encourage cooperation, highlighting its importance in human society and evolution.
