Abstract
The author agrees with much of Roger E. Bissell’s critique of the Objectivist idea of volition (in his July 2015 essay, “Where There’s a Will, There’s a ‘Why’: A Critique of the Objectivist Theory of Volition”), especially as expressed by Leonard Peikoff. On the other hand, the author believes Bissell’s reform of the Objectivist conception is at best minimal and it lacks attention to thinking as an integral part of volition.
