"An engaging discussion and critique of Rand's metaethics and ethics. I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in Rand." -Jason Brennan (When All Else Fails, Against Democracy) Ayn Rand bases her morality of selfish egoism on a flawed conception of value, argues Ari Armstrong in What's Wrong with Ayn Rand's Objectivist Ethics. Values are not, as Rand has it, inherently oriented to an organism's survival, either for people or for living things broadly. Rather, people experience certain things as ends in themselves and value some things (such as having and raising children) for reasons other than to advance their survival. Although Rand and her advocates seek to make sense of the biology of values, the nature of human life, ends in themselves, happiness, and moral virtues, ultimately their efforts do not rescue Rand's theory. Further, Rand's theory cannot adequately explain why a person should consistently respect others' rights, avoid free riding, and engage civically. Armstrong, long an Objectivist before concluding that Rand's moral theory has intractable problems, proposes an alternate way to conceive of a person's ultimate value, one that recognizes many of Rand's insights while making more room for the interests of others. The book offers insights and challenges for those who are new to Rand's ideas as well as to those who have long studied Rand's philosophy. The work dives deeply into the literature on Rand's moral theory, for those interested, with detailed notes and an extensive appendix exploring major works on the topic. The book includes the following chapters: 1. Ayn Rand's Selfishness 2. Reviewing the Objectivist Ethics 3. The Essential Fallacies of Rand's Ethics 4. The Error in Rand's Biology 5. Values, Life, and Death 6. Robots, Man Qua Man, and the Choice to Live 7. Egoism and Rights 8. Egoists, Free Riders, and Charity 9. Rethinking the Ultimate Value Appendix: The Literature on Rand's Moral Theory Ari Armstrong is the author of Reclaiming Liberalism and Values of Harry Potter, and he publishes the Colorado Freedom Report.

Educational leadership is vital to sustain quality educational institutions. It is the role of the school leader to indoctrinate stakeholders with the objectivist ethics-embracing egoism and relinquishing altruistic ideals when it comes to invigorating the system with sustainable change. Ayn Rand's timeless piece of literature "The Virtue of Selfishness" (1964) is the foundation for incorporating these ideals into the educational arena around the world.

Ayn Rand advanced and propagated the view that rational selfishness should be pursued at all cost instead of altruism, that the individual should be allowed by all to live as he or she pleases. The only duty of government, according to her, is to make sure that nobody takes away the freedom of the individual. This research work is aimed at evaluating this moral theory of Rand called objectivist ethics, to determine it's strength and weakness and implications on man and society especially the African society which is communalistic in nature. Even though we agree with Rand that man has the tendency to become selfish and defend individualism, we do not agree with her that selfishness is a virtue. This work after examining the different positions of both philosophers, sociologists and Anthropologists on the objectivist ethics of Rand, concludes that the moral theory of Ayn Rand, if left the way she posited it, will make the individual person the sole authority in morality, that is nothing but relativism in ethics. The individual is good but the group is better.

Few people think of business ethics as being addressed outside of main-stream business ethics, philosophy and corporate social responsibility circles. This view is in error. Arguably the most prominent philosopher of the last century, Ayn Rand, has provided a philosophy of business that is satisfying to many people, not the least of which is Chairman of the Federal Reserve, Alan Greenspan. Rand's philosophy suggests that self-interested behaviour is not merely an economic modeling of human behaviour, but an ethical imperative. To professional philosophers, Rand is naïve and unsatisfying; however, that does not diminish her appeal to the less sophisticated. After a review of Rand's great popular appeal, the article then moves on to some of the main points of her philosophy, offers a critique of those points and then encourages a more serious analysis of Rand's philosophy, particularly for those teaching and consulting on ethics.
