forodwaith here, I find this lovely post on Language Log in which Marc Liberman shows how access to publicly funded research can help an informed reader decimate a single point made in Louann Brizendine's The Female Brain. With open access to the research, Liberman points out, it's harder for authors summarizing the results of scientific research to completely make shit up as Brizendine does here.
