Atlas Shrugged and Ayn Rand's Morality of Egoism (Part 3 of 3)
by Craig Biddle
(April 3, 2009)
Like every ethical code, egoism has definite political implications. Just as the morality of self-sacrifice lays the groundwork for a particular kind of political system--one in which the government forces people to sacrifice (e.g., socialism, communism, fascism, theocracy)--so the morality of self-interest lays the groundwork for a certain kind of political system--one in which the government plays an entirely different role.

Atlas Shrugged and Ayn Rand's Morality of Egoism (Part 1 of 3)
by Craig Biddle
(April 1, 2009)
Atlas Shrugged is first and foremost a brilliant suspense story about a man who said he would stop the motor of the world and did. But the book is much more than a great novel. Integrated into the story is a revolutionary philosophy--a philosophy not for pie-in-the-sky debates or academic word games or preparing for an "afterlife," but for understanding reality, achieving values, and living on earth.

Thomas Sowell's 2008 Summer Reading Recommendations
by Thomas Sowell
(May 20, 2008)
Some parents who are concerned about their children receiving a steady diet of liberal-left indoctrination in schools and colleges regard the summer vacation as a time to show these young people a different way of looking at things, with readings presenting viewpoints that are unlikely to be heard in classrooms that have become indoctrination centers. Fortunately, there is a growing body of literature-- both books and articles-- presenting a very different viewpoint in readable language.
