youtube.com/watch?v=WqJwyt… The Israeli Objectivist, Harry Kaufman, interviewed me yesterday. The topic was the case for Western Civilization--and the errors of the West's enemies. This is both a serious and a fun discussion. Enjoy!

This essay is included in my forthcoming collection, "Aristotle Versus Religion and Other Essays." It tells the inspiring but tragic story of the Golden Age of Islam, a period of monumental genius destroyed by religious faith. The book will be out in the next two months.

youtube.com/watch?v=ErkIFB… Michael Liebowitz and I discuss "All About Eve," a terrific movie and a bravura performance by the great Bette Davis. This is a sensitive story about the problems faced by career women, and our analysis of it gets deeper and better the further in we go.

I will interview today on Karen Schoen's America Out Loud network on capitalism. I will show that capitalism's principle of individual rights liberates creative minds to create vast amounts of intellectual and material wealth, enriching, advancing, and extending human life.
