I have noticed that there have been a number of inquiries about learning more about Objectivism. I'd like to recommend The Ayn Rand Lexicon edited by Dr. Harry Binswanger and published by New American Library. For those new to Objectivism or those don't have the time to do a lot of studying or reading, this is a sort of Cliff's Notes on Objectivism. I have found it to be invaluable not only for its information but for its references. (My copy is so worn it almost looks like its been in a shredder.)

    My dog-eared copy is right next to the computer . I have pretty much all of the literature it references, but what a time saver!

    Ditto that and it's sits on the table not in the book shelf. I did order Bernsteins book it's available for not too much from any number of used book stores through Amazon. I scored a like new copy. Thanks for that tip!

    The Cliffs Notes were written by Andrew Bernstein. Dr. Bernstein also wrote other Cliffs Notes for Anthem and The Fountainhead. His website is here: http://andrewbernstein.net/books/

    On the other hand, the Spark Notes are the work of Anne Williams who has no other connection to Objectivism.
