This came up as a random article. I just got Unrugged Individualism and haven't had time to read it yet.

This was a great little outline of the essentials and will greatly enhance reading it.

Having read David Kelley's Truth and Toleration, I had high expectations for this work. I was quite disappointed with it.

While T&T appeared to draw from many sources on the subject of toleration, UI simply drew from Rand and others. I naturally wondered if David Kelley was afraid of whom he would "offend" if he had cited other sources on the subject of toleration.

I also felt that the book left out some important components of benevolence. The book makes no mention of forgiveness or gratitude. Forgiveness is the acknowledgement that a person has made an honest error. Gratitude is an act of reflection toward the benevolence of others.
