Description:
Rand's 1200-page novel is a hymn of praise to the concept of rugged individualism, personified in John Galt. This polemic for Rand's philosophy of rational self-interest has been a steady seller since it was published in 1957.
Customer Reviews
I don't want to ramble on about the story, just comment on the purchase. The book came in about 7-8 days and was in great condition. I was surprised at how small of a book it is, it is about the size of my hand with my fingers spread and the font size is 8 point at best. It's great for taking places and not being bulky but if you have bad vision I would not recommend this book at all. Oh and the story is awesome!

I was not sure how well I would like or understand the book; it was purchased primarily for a scholarship essay.
I read this book 45 years ago and was enthralled by it. However, this "anniversary" version had print to small to be readable.

Books I intend to re read......Outstanding reads which today I intend to recommend to a special friend. Everyone should be required to read Ayn Rand.

Excellent source of understanding modern issues within our society. Ms Ran was a clear thinker who tried and completely conveyed the issues that affect society within the pages of a very detailed and fiction collection of examples. The idea is to interpret what we face daily with traditional philosophy and logic. Very good for those looking to understand irrational behaviors in people and in ourselves.
