Canoe_Captain Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 I included only books and authors that were favourably mentioned or recommended by Stefan. (Last updated in September 2014) I assume you already know about the books at freedomainradio.com/free/ General Anarchism and Economics Stefan Molyneux - The Stateless Society An Examination of Alternatives Philosophy Ayn Rand - Atlas Shrugged Ayn Rand - The Fountainhead (Stefan mentions that Nathaniel Branden has published an interesting comment on Ayn Rand's characters repressing their emotions. I believe Stefan could likely be referring to this online available text: The Benefits and Hazards of the Philosophy of Ayn Rand: A Personal Statement) George Bernard Shaw - Man and Superman Stefan recommended the following authors in general: Aristotle Plato Socrates Descartes Rousseau Voltaire Martin Luther Self-Knowledge Nathaniel Branden - The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem: The Definitive Work on Self-Esteem by the Leading Pioneer in the Field Jay Earley - Self-Therapy: A Step-By-Step Guide to Creating Wholeness and Healing Your Inner Child Using IFS, A New, Cutting-Edge Psychotherapy (Book was recommended by some in the FDR community, not mentioned by Stefan yet.)
