Abstract

ABSTRACT The author proposes to convert Ayn Rand’s theory of man into a sixth branch of her Objectivist philosophy called the metaphysics of man. This branch would be distinct from both the metaphysics of reality and epistemology. Along with consolidating all the axioms about the fundamental nature of man, this new framework will simplify and clarify the structure of Objectivism.
