    Although the characters can feel like caricatures at times, this book changed the way that I think in many respects and has been a great motivator in my research, particularly when times are tough. One of my favorite books and would be included on any trip to a desert island.

    Atlas Shrugged is preachy, forced, spectacularly anti-feminist, and a failure as a work of fiction (in that the fiction is but a vehicle for the sermons in which Rand lectures her readers through her characters).

    I was reading this book as the world economy was imploding last fall, and I had a hard time believing Rand wrote this in the 1940's/1950's. The U.S. Gov't taking over the auto industry, banks . . . now talking about taking over metro rail lines and subways . . . the solar panel company in CO, touted by Obama as the wave of the future--every employee makes exactly the same amount, management or grunt doesn't matter--filing for bankruptcy . . . Rand could have been writing about the headlines showing up every day these days.

  • WOW!!!

    To say that this is the greatest book I've ever read falls short of what I really think of this tome. It is a very long book and very well worth the read (or in my case, listen) Ayn Rand is an absolute genius.
