Pinker v. Spelke on 'The Science of Gender and Science'

This debate was actually sparked by a comment made by Larry Summers - past Harvard President and potential candidate(?) for the Federal Reserve - see here and here

In a way, you could say that Pinker is Summer's pinch hitter for the debate and his comments on "innate mathematical ability" in women.



You can follow the debate (transcript and slide presentation) here
