The Age Of Rand Imagining An Objectivist Future World [Paperback]

Do I think that Objectivism will be the philosophy of the future? I would say yes, but -Ayn Rand to Playboy Magazine, 1964. My views will probably be the norm in the future, but not right now. -Ayn Rand to Johnny Carson, 1967.Will they? The Age of Rand describes what Ayn Rand's philosophy, Objectivism, will mean in practice-for good and ill. Rand expressed her controversial ideas in her best-selling novels, Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead. Every year, more commentators debate those ideas, often heatedly.Frederick Cookinham asks questions no author has asked before:Would Objectivists destroy the environment in favor of rampant development?Why will Objectivist civilization be built on the oceans and in space?Is Objectivism a Nietzschean Superman philosophy?Ayn Rand often said, Check your premises, and watch your implications! Explore, in The Age of Rand, the astounding implications of this fast-growing and provocative new system of ideas. Some philosophy will dominate this new century-be prepared if it turns out to be Ayn Rand's. Frederick Cookinham has written something of great worth to thousands who have been affected by Rand's work. -Andrea Millen Rich, Laissez Faire Books.
