For the New Intellectual: The Philosophy of Ayn Rand (50th Anniversary Edition)

This is Ayn Rand's challenge to the prevalent philosophical doctrines of our time and the "atmosphere of guilt, of panic, of despair, of boredom, and of all-pervasive evasion" that they create.

One of the most controversial figures on the intellectual scene, Ayn Rand was the proponent of a moral philosophyâ€”and ethic of rational self-interestâ€”that stands in sharp opposition to the ethics of altruism and self-sacrifice. The fundamentals of this moralityâ€”"a philosophy for living on Earth"â€”are here vibrantly set forth by the spokesman for a new class, For the New Intellectual.
