About this product

Product Information

A collection of essays that sets forth the moral principles of Objectivism, Ayn Rand's controversial, groundbreaking philosophy. Since their initial publication, Rand's fictional works-Anthem, The Fountainhead, and Atlas Shrugged-have had a major impact on the intellectual scene. The underlying theme of her famous novels is her philosophy, a new morality-the ethics of rational self-interest-that offers a robust challenge to altruist-collectivist thought. Known as Objectivism, her divisive philosophy holds human life-the life proper to a rational being-as the standard of moral values and regards altruism as incompatible with man's nature. In this series of essays, Rand asks why man needs morality in the first place, and arrives at an answer that redefines a new code of ethics based on the virtue of selfishness.

  • Revelatory

    Ayn Rand is a revelation and should be on the curriculum for all senior pupils. If you want a process to guide you though a worthwhile life this is as good a start as any. She argues the case for individual responsibility and the value of reasoned thought clearly and logically. If you want to know the kind of world you are living in read "Atlas Shrugged".
