The Philosophy Of Objectivism: Understand The Basic Philosophical Principles Of Objectivism: Objectivist And Constructivist Methods

By Williams Buttrick

Objectivism is a philosophical system developed by Russian-American writer Ayn Rand. ... Rand described Objectivism as "the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute". But what is the truth about Objectivism? What is it in Rand's novels that make a light turn on in the minds of her readers, and why does that light always flare and then burn out, leaving behind either anger or mindless obedience? This book argues that Objectivism has been turned into a shallow, two-dimensional cartoon caricature of what the philosophy really is, by both Objectivism's foes and its followers. This groundbreaking, the innovative book looks at Objectivism in a new light and offers an analysis, rooted in quotes from the texts of Rand's novels, that presents Objectivism as a deep, serious, thoughtful philosophy, with emotional depth and shades of gray, a philosophy of the mind designed for smart people to heighten their intellectual freedom, not merely a cult of robots or a cartoonish Right-wing extremist defense of rich businessmen. If you want to know the truth about Objectivism then read this book.
