 Meridian, 1993, softcover, index, 495 pages, second hand book but basically condition: as new.

                          The definitive statement of Ayn Rands philosophy as interpreted by her best student and chosen heir and author of this book.
 
This brilliantly conceived and organized book is Dr. Leonard Peikoffs classic text on the abstract principles and practical applications of Objectivism, based on his lecture series The Philosophy of Objectivism. Ayn Rand said of these lectures: Until or unless I write a comprehensive treatise on my philosophy, Dr. Peikoffs course is the only authorized presentation of the entire theoretical structure of Objectivismthat is, the only one that I know of my knowledge to be fully accurate.
 
In Objectivism, Peikoff covers every philosophic topic that Rand regarded as importantfrom certainty to money, from logic to art, from measurement to sex. Drawn from Rands published works as well as in-depth conversations between her and Peikoff, these chapters illuminate Objectivismand its creatorwith startling clarity. With Objectivism, the millions of readers who have been transformed by Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead will discover the full philosophical system underlying Ayn Rands work.

Leonard Peikoff is the preeminent Ayn Rand scholar writing today. He worked closely with Rand in New York City for thirty years and was designated by her as heir to her estate. He has taught philosophy at several places, including Hunter College and New York University. Dr. Peikoff is the author of The DIM Hypothesis: Why the Lights of the West Are Going Out and The Cause of Hitlers Germany. He grew up in Western Canada and now lives in Southern California. He also hosted the national radio talk show "Philosophy: Who Needs It."
