June 2007 -- The April 16 massacre on the campus of Virginia Tech by a lone gunman has become another bloodstained entry in the ever-expanding ledger of mass murders, here and abroad. Headlines about slaughters in schools, post offices, and other public places blend in with daily news reports of terrorist assaults worldwide on civilians, reports so frequent and ghastly that eventually, unavoidably, they leave us numb.

December 2007 -- As the story is told, a scientist was discussing with the philosopher-novelist Ayn Rand how her vision of a laissez-faire society would affect scientific projects. She explained that all such projects (apart those undertaken for the limited functions of government) would have to be privately funded, either through corporate research-and-development departments or through foundations.

What is the importance, to an individualist, of his people, his culture, his nation, and his country—and what, for an individualist, is the importance of the future of those things?
