Brief Report on on January session on Valuing and Desires

I’m writing with a brief report on the Ayn Rand Society’s session on Valuing and Desires at last month’s meeting of the American Philosophical Association Eastern Division in New York City.

There were about seven audience members, not including the panelists, but most of them participated actively in the discussion, which was sustained, astute and lively. Many of our regulars from past APA meetings did not attend either because they were in other sessions or because they were not able to make the conference. The attendees included several philosophy students who had not been any of our prior sessions, and some people who I haven’t met before.

The papers are now available at this link. to members and contributors of the society.
