1. The term was first used, in print, by Ayn Rand to designate a man's "method of awareness," in For the New
   Intellectual (New York: Random House, 1961), p. 18. However, the concept of "psycho-epistemology," as used in
   Objectivism and in Biocentric Psychology, was originated neither by Miss Rand nor by myself but by Barbara
   Branden who, in the mid-1950s, first brought this field of study to our attention and persuaded us of its importance.
