Rembrandt confetti
N. Branden's comments silly and layered with irony Branden should review some of his own writings about making groundless, arbitrary assertions.Just exactly why or how is such a book superior in "advancing the cause"?As AR would have said: "No answer is given". Secondly - anyone familiar with the 'personal history' of AR and Branden should find his use of the term "idiotic adulation" to be layered with irony.You couldn't find a more idiotic way to express 'adulation' for someone who is in the role of your mentor then ...well ... you know. Sorry about that - but it had to be said. Sciabarra is pretty obviously not too bright, and no comparison can be made between such a so-called 'scholar' and the truly educated and intelligent "poor souls at ARI". Just another non-intellectual book on Ayn Rand that will be forgotten by the time Objectivism really takes hold.
Excellent wide-ranging scholarly discussion
Many disciplines brought to bear ... This book does not claim to "promote" Rand, nor are its articles written from the perspective of the true believer.To disagree with Rand's Objectivism does nothing to address the contents of the anthology.As a matter of fact, several of the contributors themselves strongly disagree with and/or disapprove of Rand, for various reasons. The editors do not claim Rand was herself a feminist, although the essays provide a framework for interpreting Rand from a feminist perspective.Further, Rand's self-identification as NOT a feminist does not mean that there is nothing in her work that can be applied to feminism, or from which feminism might benefit. And to claim that the volume is trying to "cash in" on Rand's name is to ignore the entire scope of literary, philosophical, cultural, psychoanalytic, and feminist criticism.The work of the literary critic, for example, involves interpreting a text from a new perspective in order to suggest meanings or structures, to uncover parallels or contradictions, and to struggle with conceptual knots found in the text.One reading will differ from another, opening up different aspects of the text that may or may not have anything to do with the author; once a book has been written, anyone who reads it is free to interpret it as he or she sees fit.For the most part, the contributors here provide in-depth scholarly analyses and plenty of documentation to support their theses.By placing Rand in a sealed box, refusing to allow her work to be interpreted and discovered, and refusing to allow new minds to draw new conclusions from her stated premises, her devoted followers only guarrantee the death of Rand's ideas. For those interested in current Rand scholarship rather than the repitition of Objectivist mantras, this anthology is superb.If you can't bear to hear any new thoughts on Rand, re-read Atlas Shrugged.If you hate Ayn Rand and think her philosophy is the root of all self-serving capitalist American evil, why the heck are you reading this anthology???Save your cult-baiting for the Down With Objectivism website.

Editorial Review Product Description Now, only thirty years later, the long, long awaited sequel is finally available. And in the age of Clinton, we need this book! A lot has happened since Tuccille left us in the tender clutches of Richard Nixon. Like, we won the Cold War, man! Enjoy the journey as the most iconoclastic libertarian humorist takes us through those missing years. The high point is the Reagan era, the last best chance to save the free market from the top down. What went wrong is grist for Tuccille's mill. His own brush running for office adds immeasurably to his insights about those in high office. But would this book be the same if Tuccille had actually become Governor of New York on the Libertarian ticket? A prospect just as likely as the ghostly visitation from Ayn Rand that begins the book. Anyone who thinks socialism is a scam and that welfare liberals are funny is going to love this book. Anyone interested in gonzo politics of the Hunter S. Thompson school will enjoy this book. Anyone who thinks that freedom is a buzzword of the crazed militia right will hate this book. Plus this is the only account of how libertarians used a naked lady on a horse to get votes! What more do you want? Customer Reviews (2)
