THE 25TH ANNIVERSARY EDITIONโThe definitive statement of Ayn Randโs philosophy as interpreted by her best student and chosen heir.
ย
This brilliantly conceived and organized book is Dr. Leonard Peikoffโs classic text on the abstract principles and practical applications of Objectivism, based on his lecture series โThe Philosophy of Objectivism.โ Ayn Rand said of these lectures: โUntil or unless I write a comprehensive treatise on my philosophy, Dr. Peikoffโs course is the only authorized presentation of the entire theoretical structure of Objectivismโthat is, the only one that I know of my knowledge to be fully accurate.โ
ย
In Objectivism, Peikoff covers every philosophic topic that Rand regarded as importantโfrom certainty to money, from logic to art, from measurement to sex. Drawn from Randโs published works as well as in-depth conversations between her and Peikoff, these chapters illuminate Objectivismโand its creatorโwith startling clarity. With Objectivism, the millions of readers who have been transformed by Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead will discover the full philosophical system underlying Ayn Randโs work.
