[Dump Thread] Amartya Sen's stuff

Hello all,

Please dump youtube/articles/columns/interviews/book-review links of Amartya Sen that you may have read/seen before. I am still in the process of watching most of Sen's videos and interviews. We can use the database later for a compilation video or an article of some kind regarding Indian Atheists.

Here's a starter: http://www.google.co.in/search?hl=en&cli...=&gs_rfai=

point out the interesting and useful ones that you may have seen.

Thanks!

Murthy

Here's one from youtube. It's not all about atheism, but it's brilliant nevertheless. Pay attention to around 3:20. He talks about being non-religious.

I have been trying to watch few of amartya sen vids, it is difficult to find out / zero in on his religious convictions (or lack of them). They mostly deal with economics and his work (welfare economics and famine), which is nice but not very interesting always. I need some help!
