   From 1962–1976, #AynRand published a series of periodicals containing dozens and dozens of nonfiction articles by herself and others. Many were later anthologized, but many more were only available in bound collections from the Ayn Rand Institute.

   But now you can get discounted paperback editions from Amazon! https://amazon.com/dp/B0DPJCLFGN?binding=paperback

   Here’s an excerpt from the very first article, appropriately titled “Choose Your Issues.” https://NewIdeal.AynRand.org/an-excerpt-from-choose-your-issues-from-ayn-rands-bound-periodicals-now-in-paperback/

     First sentence in, and Ayn Rand already got it wrong. A countries political ideas AND their cultural trends are determined by the material conditions of society. It's called dialectical and historical materialism. Read about it.
