Wikipedia agrees in part but evidently there are other meanings as well. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trade_paperback_(comics) Ben:

I also recommend many of the entires in his "Life's a Beach" column, which is linked to in the lefthand menu. It pertains more to everyday life. Same here, been reading Daily Dose for several years.

Also, I also highly recommend his book "Grow Up, America" -- and not just because one of the chapters consists of an interview I did with Dr. Hurd on public education.

There is no such entity as Objectivist psychology. There is only psychology based on Objectivist principles or from an Objectivist perspective. That is what I was trying to convey. I see now I should have been more precise. Perhaps someday there will be one but right now there is no such thing. Those listed above are psychologists who apply the principles of Objectivism to the field of psychology. You are right Burgess. There is no such entity as Objectivist psychology.

Perhaps it means only "psychology as variously practiced or taught by individuals who support the philosophy of Objectivism." Strictly speaking, there is no such as Objectivist specialized-science X, is there? No Objectivist chemistry or Objectivist biology? Mike N, thanks for the list of names and links. I passed it on to a university student majoring in psychology and planning to go to graduate school. She is a member of our local network of Objectivists.
