Life in the Market Ecosystem

Life in the Market Ecosystem confronts evolutionary psychology head on. Moreover, as essential tenets of Rand’s Objectivism—individualism, observation-based rationality, and peaceable self-interest—have been integral to the development of the capitalist ecosystem, important aspects of Objectivism are worthwhile evolutionary adaptations. This book upholds that position, as well as combats critiques by evolutionary psychologists and environmentalists who denounce capitalism as self-destructive.
