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.
