We are told that we cannot trust our senses, that logic is arbitrary, that concepts have no basis in reality. \u003cb\u003eAyn Rand\u003c\/b\u003e opposes that torrent of nihilism, and she provides the alternative in this eloquent presentation of the essential nature--and power--of man's conceptual faculty. She offers a startlingly original solution to the problem that brought about the collapse of modern philosophy: the problem of universals. This brilliantly argued, superbly written work, together with an essay by philosophy professor \u003cb\u003eLeonard Peikoff\u003c\/b\u003e, is vital reading for all those who seek to discover that human beings can and should live by the guidance of reason.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction to Objectivist Epistemology - Ayn Rand       \u003ci\u003eEdited by Harry Binswanger and Leonard Peikoff\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExpanded Second Edition\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eForeword to the First Edition by Ayn Rand\u003cbr\u003e1.
