“The Biological Basis of Teleological Concepts”

What is a goal-directed action? Are non-conscious, “vegetative” actions goal-directed? Can machines act goal-directedly? The answers to these and related questions emerge from integrating Darwin’s principle of Natural Selection with Ayn Rand’s identification that the concept of “value” depends on the concept of “life.”

The PDF edition is searchable
and readable on Kindle, iPad, etc.



“The Constitution and States’ Rights”

Why—contrary to the claims of conservatives—the Supreme Court does have the authority to overturn any state law that violates individual rights.

A PDF reprinted, from The Objectivist Forum

 



“The Possible Dream”

A rational, non-Platonic concept of “perfection.”

A PDF reprinted, from The Objectivist Forum.

Tap Your Own Brilliance

You already know what you need to know to complete most of the complex items on your To Do list. There’s just one problem. You can’t always access the information when you need it.

We’ve all felt stuck in our thinking at times — though you may have called it “procrastinating” or “bogging down” or “going in circles.”  A few basic tools can slay these dragons.

If you want to speed up the process, and learn to access what you already know when you need it, you can learn how in my 4-session course, Tap Your Own Brilliance. This class presents the core tool set you need to pull helpful information out of your own brain, and use it to solve problems faster, make better decisions, and communicate more effectively.

Plus:  your purchase of Tap Your Own Brilliance includes a 3 month trial subscription in the Thinking Lab
