here's a start: [ame]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sociobiology[/ame]
E.O.Wilson's book is what really kicked the whole thing off, it's been heavily criticised and studied ever since, but it's a good starting point for understanding the debates if you are reasonably scientifically literate.
Steven Pinker's "The Blank Slate" is good too.
"The Adapted Mind: Evolutionary psychology and the generation of culture" (Barkow, Cosmides and Tooby) also looks interesting, haven't read it but i've read some of cosmides and tooby's other work.
