Description

This article is from the Objectivism Resource Guide FAQ, by Jay Andrew Allen jallen@ingress.com with numerous contributions by others.

4.7 The Objectivist Newsletter; The Objectivist; The Ayn Rand Letter (1962-1976)

These were the magazines owned and edited by Ayn Rand. They are all available in
bound format from Second Renaissance Books (see below, section 5.4)

-- THE OBJECTIVIST NEWSLETTER (1962-1965): Many of the articles have been
reprinted in Ayn Rand's books, particularly in _Capitalism:_The_Unknown_Ideal_
and _The_Virtue_Of_Selfishness_. It does contain, however, many book reviews and
interesting answers to reader's questions that have never been published
elsewhere.

-- THE OBJECTIVIST (1966-1971): This 1,120-page book is perhaps the richest of
the three in content. Included: Ayn Rand's essays on epistemology, reprinted as
_Introduction_To_Objectivist_Epistemology_; "Metaphysics in Marble" by Mary Ann
Sures, an essay applying Objectivist esthetics to the art of sculpture; "To Whom
It May Concern," Ayn Rand's explanation of why she broke all intellectual ties
with Nathaniel Branden. The bound volume comes with a six page essay, "The
Rational Faculty," which is Ayn Rand's thinking out loud" about the
philosophical link between individualism and reason.

--THE AYN RAND LETTER (1971-76): This volume is best known for applying
philosophical principles to international issues of the day.
