The “Virtue of Selfishness”? Ayn Rand’s Ethics of Egoism in Your Own Life
Ayn Rand held that an individual’s pursuit of “his own rational self-interest and of his own happiness is the highest moral purpose of his life.” Fifty years ago, Rand published The Virtue of Selfishness, a groundbreaking book laying out her ethics of rational egoism.
