Ayn Rand described Objectivism as “a philosophy for living on earth.” This is because it provides principled guidance for making life-serving choices, taking life-serving actions, and establishing a free society—so that we can make such choices and take such actions. Craig Biddle will outline the basic principles of Objectivism, with emphasis on how they can help you think more clearly, live more fully, and defend freedom on solid ground.

About the Speaker:

Craig Biddle is cofounder and director of education and programs at Objective Standard Institute, cofounder and editor in chief of The Objective Standard, and executive director of Prometheus Foundation. His books include Loving Life: The Morality of Self-Interest and the Facts that Support It; Rational Egoism: The Morality for Human Flourishing; and the forthcoming Forbidden Facts: Moral Truths Your Parents, Preachers, and Teachers Don’t Want You to Know.
