The Science of Gender and Science

Wow. If you’re looking for an in-depth debate about the whole controversy surrounding women in academia, science, and innate traits, this one is it. The debate includes audio and video clips, as well as their slide presentations. The debate, between Steven Pinker and Elizabeth S. Spelke, features these two eminent Harvard University psychology professors.

Make sure you also read the followup remarks from additional psychologists. Enlightening, if not heavy and lengthy, reading.
