I've read chapters but never the full thing. I do have it, but i've never done anything except thumb through it. I'm enjoying the little I've read of this, though.
Well, I call him Neo-objectivist cause I'm not sure if his views are strictly orthodox. From the little I've seen of this professor in general, he calls himself a libertarian and an agnostic, but the paper we are to read from him is on egoism. Neo-Objectivism is usually just a way of saying someone who doesn't fit the exact framework. I didn't recognize the name, but when I googled him I found out I had been at his homepage before. He's a member of the Ayn Rand Society, a group of Objectivist academics in the field of philosophy, recognized by the American Philosophical Association.
