Roy Barzilai is an independent scholar, who studied both Ayn Rand’s
philosophy of Objectivism and Rivka Schechter’s philosophy of
language, rooted in the Hebrew Bible. The synthesis of Rand’s
Aristotelian philosophy, and the biblical creed of ethical monotheism
provides profound insights into the ideas that shaped the Western
mind. By exploring the intellectual history of Western civilization,
Roy seeks to reach a greater understanding of the human mind.
As a financial analyst for more than a decade, Roy became aware of the
herd mentality in financial markets. He studied the Wave Principle of
Human Social Behavior and the new science of Socionomics, focusing on
how change in social mood affects society, its ideas, philosophy,
culture, and economy. This dynamism is the engine of history.
Roy holds undergraduate degrees from Tel Aviv University in Law,
accounting, and computer science.
