In his talk, Peter discussed the ideas in his new book, In Defense of Selfishness: Why the Code of Self-Sacrifice Is Unjust and Destructive.

This May, two high school sophomores, Sarah Henry and Shelbey Michel, from Bethel High School in Spanaway, Washington, entered a National History Day competition in which they were to select a historical figure to feature as the subject of their research. It was a requirement of the competition that the person chosen embody leadership and have a strong legacy in the culture today. The students chose Ayn Rand. From there, they went to work learning everything they could about Rand and her philosophy of Objectivism — using resources from the Ayn Rand Archives at ARI — and then creating their exhibit for the competition.
