My “Egoism in Nietzsche and Rand” was published in The Journal of Ayn Rand Studies. Here is the abstract for my 43-page study:
“Philosophers Friedrich Nietzsche and Ayn Rand are often identified as strong critics of altruism and arch advocates of egoism. In this essay, Stephen Hicks argues that Nietzsche and Rand have much in common in their critiques of altruism but almost nothing in common in their views on egoism.”
In the same issue, Professor Lester Hunt has a commentary on my essay and an independent reading of Nietzsche that is valuable. This entire issue of JARS is a symposium devoted to essays comparing Friedrich Nietzsche and Ayn Rand. Related: The audio version of my essay:
