E.O. Wilson
E.O. Wilson was an eminent American biologist, naturalist, and author, known for his pioneering work in myrmecology, the study of ants, as well as his contributions to biodiversity and conservation biology. Born on June 10, 1929, Wilson co-founded the field of sociobiology and promoted the idea of biophilia, which suggests an innate human affinity for nature. Throughout his career, he authored numerous books, including 'Sociobiology: The New Synthesis' and 'The Diversity of Life,' earning him two Pulitzer Prizes. Wilson's advocacy for environmental conservation and his emphasis on the importance of preserving biodiversity have made him a prominent figure in the scientific community and a respected voice in discussions about ecological sustainability.
