Atlas Shrugged Review
This book is one of the most influential books in my life. I read it when I was 16 years old, at a time when I started trying to define my personal philosophy and ethics. I was reading several political philosophy books at the time; Rand's was morally, ethically, and politically incredibly consistent. She is truly a revolutionary genius and for too long has been placed on the sidelines of the so-called intelligentsia. But there are a host of incredibly accomplished thinkers who believe otherwise. This book successfully popularized a complex political and philosophical argument, in a romantic, passionate way. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND to anyone interested in THINKING.

Atlas Shrugged Overview
At last, Ayn Rand's masterpiece is available to her millions of loyal readers in trade paperback.
With this acclaimed work and its immortal query, "Who is John Galt?", Ayn Rand found the perfect artistic form to express her vision of existence. Atlas Shrugged made Rand not only one of the most popular novelists of the century, but one of its most influential thinkers.
Atlas Shrugged is the astounding story of a man who said that he would stop the motor of the world--and did. Tremendous in scope, breathtaking in its suspense, Atlas Shrugged stretches the boundaries further than any book you have ever read. It is a mystery, not about the murder of a man's body, but about the murder--and rebirth--of man's spirit.
* Atlas Shrugged is the "second most influential book for Americans today" after the Bible, according to a joint survey conducted by the Library of Congress and the Book of the Month Club
