There is a new book in the bookclub along with some added classics.
In an attempt to understand the principals of objectivism one must first understand its foundations. To attempt to do so I am suggesting a book I haven't yet read. We will be taking this journey together. Expect an update on the book soon.
For a basic explanation of Objectivism try going here:

I remember back when I was in the 3rd grade there was this teacher that I actually liked.
She was not trying to get me to submit to the bunk that all of the other textbooks prescribed.
She was the one who got me into the Ancient Egyptians in the firstplace.
I have pondered many times what had happened to her until I found her again recently.
There has never been a warmer feeling in my heart.
Yes, I had an emotion today. I wanted to share it to prove a point.
...
Not all EMOTION is INDUCTION, just most.
By creating that bond I performed in her class at a higher level than all of the rest scoring A+ on the days assignment with 15 minutes to spare to draw pictures and talk with her about my studies one on one.
By granting special priveledges you can either BOND or INDUCE, However the choice is always yours. She could have used me but instead she placed me into gifted classes at an early age and allowed me to perform in competitions for Odessey of the Mind.
This was the only success that I know of that ever came from public education because I developed a taste for learning that never ceased, and by learning to think CRITICALLY I also developed the chops to see when the bull was being pulled over my eyes.
This is why I reccomend my next book so early.
THE DELIBERATE DUMBING DOWN OF AMERICA
BY CHARLOTTE THOMPSON ISRBYT
Read William Cooper's book.
BEHOLD A PALE HORSE.
Almost every idea you have been reading lately came from that.
You know who I am talking about when I say this.
