      ab: The article discusses the epistemological concept of objectivist philosopher Leonard Peikoff's doctrine of the arbitrary assertion. It indicates that Peikoff's doctrine ascents several philosophical questions including how epistemology affects human mental functioning and how clear is Peikoff's notion of an arbitrary assertion. It investigates how Peikoff presumes arbitrary as a coherent classification from an epistemic standpoint. It also cites that Peikoff believes that an arbitrary statement and false statement is qualitatively different.
