Sinopsis

This book is a study of Ayn Rand?s philosophy of ?objectivism.? It addresses itself to three basic questions: what is ?objectivism?? What is the full meaning of the objectivist point of view? and what are the basic social implications of objectivism? The book is divided into three major sections. The first part summarizes Ayn Rand?s philosophy with respect to three basic areas of inquiry: (1) knowing and the known, (2) personal value and the nature of man, and (3) the ethics of objectivism. The second part of the study follows the same general organizational scheme as the first and consists primarily of a critical analysis of the ideas presented in the earlier pages. The purpose of the study is to deal with Ayn Rand?s basic premises, only secondary consideration is given to the way in which these premises apply to specific problems in such areas as politics, economics and esthetics. Throughout, the author has been less concerned with criticizing what Rand says than with determining whether what she says makes sense in terms of established procedures for rational and semantic analysis and with respect to generally accepted principles for the scientific verification of evidence.
