Review: Living Proof
by Jason Stotts As a writer myself trying to get my first book published, I know how hard it is to get a book in front of a publisher, let alone get them to read it. To actually take it all the way to publication is quite the achievement today, when publishers would much rather [...]

Contra Peikoff on Rape

Today’s quote is from Jean-Baptiste Say: Alas, how many have been persecuted for the wrong of having been right? If you have never read Say, he is worth reading and is a clear [...]
