Life changing lecture series

After reading the novels, I fell in love with the characters and wanted to look into non-fiction work about the philosophy of objectivism which led me to this. The unbelievably beautiful presentation by Nathaniel Branden will forever be a legend in my life. I think he speaks to the rational mind in any individual who is willing and able to think. If your life is riddled with contradictions and you find yourself lost in the world of chaotic politics of today, then you need a philosophy of reason. His voice and presentation style makes you admire every word and think consciously about it.

An accurate and well articulated analysis.

An accurate analysis from the perspective of a psychologist on the importance of an objective philosophy.

The best explanation of Objectivism I've read

I have read every book published by Ayn Rand and many books related to her philosophy by other authors. this is the best book that explaining her philosophy in a way that is most relatable to the average reader. Nathaniel Brandon did an amazing job. please read this.

Enjoyable presentation.

I think it unfortunate that they dissociated, though I am sure there was good reason.

Can you be honest with yourself?

This entire time listening all I could ask is if any of it applied to me and a lot of it has.
