Philosophy: Who Needs It | Ayn Rand
3 posts | 2 read | 3 to read
This collection of essays was the last work planned by Ayn Rand before her death in 1982. In it, she summarizes her view of philosophy and deals with a broad spectrum of topics. According to Ayn Rand, the choice we make is not whether to have a philosophy, but which one to have: rational, conscious, and therefore practical; or contradictory, unidentified, and ultimately lethal. Written with all the clarity and eloquence that have placed Ayn Rand's Objectivist philosophy in the mainstream of American thought, these essays range over such basic issues as education, morality, censorship, and inflation to prove that philosophy is the fundamental force in all our lives.

“...[E]ven so dismal a figure as President Nixon is a hopeful sign....If any other country were in as desperately precarious a state of confusion as ours, a dozen flamboyant Fuhrers would have sprung up overnight to take it over. It is to America‘s credit that no such Fuhrer has appeared, and if any did, it is doubtful that he would have a chance.”
