The Chronicle of Higher Education has a must-read piece about the integration of sociology and behavioral genetics. In it we learn that the American Journal of Sociology has just run a special issue devoted to that theme - wow. Looks fascinating (I haven't read it yet). As John Hawks notes, however, the traditional feuding between biological and social theorists of behaviour doesn't seem to be over yet...

There was an interesting discussion of the psychology of philosophy over at The Garden of Forking Paths.

Finally, Powerwatch UK have, very decently, included a link to my December 21st criticisms of a paper about leukemia and power lines, in their coverage of that study.
