About us
History: Our predecessor, Second Renaissance Book
Service, Inc. (SRB), was founded in 1985. SRB has featured the most complete
selection of Ayn Rand's writings and lectures available. SRB's first Web site was
RationalMind.com. Second Renaissance, Inc., was formed in January 2001, by the merger
of SRB, Lyceum International Inc., and Second Renaissance Conferences Inc.
Aynrandbookstore.com is owned and operated by Second Renaissance, Inc., which is
owned and operated by the Ayn Rand Institute as of February 2003.
Across a wide array of subjects, our titles present
(implicitly or explicitly, in part or in whole): the efficacy and value of
reason—the virtues of individual achievement, and its guarantor, individual
rights—the practicality of freedom and capitalism. In other words: ideas
for the rational mind.
Trademarks: "Ayn Rand" is a trademark of the Estate
of Ayn Rand. The use of the trademark by Second Renaissance, Inc. is by license from
the Estate of Ayn Rand.
Every effort is made to be as accurate as possible, but the
