Gender Debate
The Edge hosted a debate between Harvard psychologists Steven Pinker and Elizabeth Spelke on The Science of Gender and Science. It's an excellent debate with both sides presenting good arguments. Be sure not to miss the concluding section - Pinker's discussion of the Arrovian statistical discrimination/self-fulfilling prophecy argument is brilliant.
