In \u003cb\u003eThe Voice of Reason\u003c\/b\u003e, these pieces, written in the last decades of Rand's life, are gathered in book form for the first time. With them are five essays by \u003cb\u003eLeonard Peikoff\u003c\/b\u003e, Rand's longtime associate and literary executor. The work concludes with Peikoff's epilogue, My Thirty Years With Ayn Rand: An Intellectual Memoir, which answers the question What was Ayn Rand really like? Important reading for all thinking individuals, Rand's later writings reflect a life lived on principle, a probing mind, and a passionate intensity. This collection communicates not only Rand's singular worldview, but also the penetrating cultural and political analysis to which it gives rise.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Voice of Reason - Essays in Objectivist Thought by Ayn Rand       \u003ci\u003eEdited and with Additional Essays by Leonard Peikoff\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroductionby Leonard Peikoff\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart One: Philosophy\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.
