For this essay, you will have need to read The Vision of Ayn Rand by Nathaniel Branden. Essays will be between 1,000 and 5,000 words, not including footnotes. Essays are preferred in Word format, though PDF files are accepted initially, but all submissions must be in electronic form. For your essay, respond to the following topic:
Identify one area where Dr. Branden indicates that Ayn Rand made a unique and significant contribution to philosophy. Explain why he makes this appraisal and indicate whether or not you agree with his assessment, and why. You may limit sources to this book, add Rand’s own works to the mix, or those of others, as you feel necessary to make your case.
