New Book from ARS/APA

[Reidy]

Allan Gotthelf reports that Metaethics, Egoism and Virtue: Studies in Ayn Rand's Normative Theory, ed. Gotthelf and Lennox, a collection of papers delivered to the Ayn Rand Society of the APA, has gone to the publishers (University of Pittsburgh Press). It's the first volume in the Ayn Rand Society Philosophical Papers. No publication date given.

There was some back-and-forth between Dr. Gotthelf and Doug Rasmussen over a paper that Dr. Rasmussen delivered at an ARS meeting—mainly because the paper as delivered is 17 years old, and Dr. Rasmussen has published quite a bit more on the issues since then.

It will be interesting to see how this kind of problem will be handled, in a collection of chapters some of which could be more than 20 years old.
