Fwd: An introduction to the political thought of Ayn Rand

Radical for Capitalism: An Introduction to the Political Thought of Ayn Rand This 30-page booklet, written by William R Thomas, explores the political thought of Ayn Rand, a topic that has catapulted to the national stage this election season following the nomination of Rep. Paul Ryan (a self-described enthusiast of Rand's ideas and novels) to the Romney ticket. "Critiques of Ayn Rand that denounce her for a cold materialism are simply off-point," writes Thomas. "Rand looked out on the world and saw endless vistas of possibility for human beings. Hers was not the despairing, post-religious nihilism that characterized so many twentieth century philosophers. Rand's works endow the essential activities of modern human life, including productive work, the use of human reason, and exchange through the marketplace, with the spiritual stature of moral greatness. That her works have this inspirational value is clearly evident in their enduring popularity." > Read Radical for Capitalism, now on Scribd.
