Ayn Rand (1905-1982), who used the writings of Aristotle as a point of departure, founded Objectivism. She, in a number of brilliant books, speeches, and pamphlets, created a completely rational philosophy. She has, for the first time in history, brought us a rational understanding of the universe and ourselves. Only within the last fifty years have we found the connections between the universe, our nature, reason, self interest, ethics and morality, esthetics, politics and economics. Rand brought a clear understanding of the relationship of each to the other, and in a truly rational system such as this, there are no contradictions in any of it. The purpose of this book is to briefly define the Objectivist Philosophy for the informed but non-academic reader, and to outline the nature of a Community of the followers of Objectivism. The First Chapter presents the essential use of logic and reason, the nature and meaning of reality (Metaphysics) and the science of knowing (Epistemology). "The Human Creature" is the subject of Chapter Two. The body and mind of each of us, is incredibly complex, but there are complex differences between the varying individuals. This chapter presents a clarifying overview of the nature of the human beings. For the first time in human history, Ayn Rand developed a rational ethic or morality based on the nature of man and his needs. Chapter Three reviews the values and virtues required for a person to survive in peace and justice and to find happiness. Esthetics, Chapter Four, is the study of that which seems beautiful to us. The layman might think the subject unimportant, but every normal person reacts to a multitude of sights and sounds that make one "feel" good, great, or sometimes bad. What is the meaning of these "feelings" and where do they come from? Considering all of the preceding chapters, Chapter Five outlines the only rational economic and political system appropriate for an Objectivist individual. The world population believes so much that is not so and so little of that which is. Thus education is both the essence of becoming and of living an Objectivist life. Chapter Six discusses some history, statistics, and proposals regarding education. To provide for the needs of Objectivist individuals, we propose a new institution in Chapter 7. The Objectivist Community. That institution will be the local vehicle, the intimate association of people and the convenient physical plant where we Objectivists will learn and live the Objectivist way of life. It will be the place and offer the program to educate ourselves and our children. The Objectivist Community will offer a foundation from which we can launch an ever expanding effort to create a more rational, more ethical and more benign culture. Chapter Eight advocates that Objectivists proselytize. Chapter Nine offers some rituals and ceremonies (Weddings, Funerals, Christmas and Thanksgiving Celebrations) that Objectivists might use or adopt. This book is intended to be a first book on Objectivism a person might buy, be given, or give.

This book is a study of Ayn Rand’s philosophy of objectivism. It addresses 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 two 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 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, O’Neill is 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.

Philosopher-novelist Ayn Rand (1905-1982) is a cultural phenomenon. Her books have sold more than twenty-eight million copies, and countless individuals speak of her writings as having significantly influenced their lives. Despite her popularity, Rand's philosophy of Objectivism has received little serious attention from academic philosophers. Concepts and Their Role in Knowledge offers scholarly analysis of key elements of Ayn Rand's radically new approach to epistemology. The four essays, by contributors intimately familiar with this area of her work, discuss Rand's theory of concepts—including its new account of abstraction and essence—and its central role in her epistemology; how that view leads to a distinctive conception of the justification of knowledge; her realist account of perceptual awareness and its role in the acquisition of knowledge; and finally, the implications of that theory for understanding the growth of scientific knowledge. The volume concludes with critical commentary on the essays by distinguished philosophers with differing philosophical viewpoints and the author's responses to those commentaries. This is the second book published in Ayn Rand Society Philosophical Studies, which was developed in conjunction with the Ayn Rand Society to offer a fuller scholarly understanding of this highly original and influential thinker. The Ayn Rand Society, an affiliated group of the American Philosophical Association, Eastern Division, seeks to foster scholarly study by philosophers of the philosophical thought and writings of Ayn Rand.
