  • Top critical review

    Great story.

    Book was well worn. It has been around. My wife found a Japanese book mark inside with a number of different airline stamps on it. I'll probably look for a better preserved copy for my library and give this one to Good Will.

  • Print is tiny!

    I read this book back in.the 1970s and enjoyed it. Wanted to.read it again, but this edition has tiny print. The introductory pages appear to be on normal paperback font, but once into the chapters the print is very small. Maybe I'll look.for a hardback edition or go with an audio book.

  • Inspiring

    Any Rand's view of humanity in general is akin to John Calvin's, man is totally depraved and does not seek the highest good. To Rand, the highest good was that the uberman is the measure of all things, Calvin taught that only God is the fulfillment of the predestined man. But both r seeking something larger than life and Rand's joy in individual creative accomplishments is an offshoot of God's creation of all the beauty that we see and is an impetus for man, created in His image to create according to the magnificent abilities God has given him. Still, a compelling story with exciting characters and a rather too quickly put together finale.

  • Necessary for Everyone to Read

    I always tell everybody they need to read this book. I consider it one of the most important ones, along with 1984 and Brave New World. Things might be ok if everyone read these 3 books. There are some parts that are too redundant, but it's worth getting through all of it. I plan to reread it soon. I liked the story besides the philosophy.

  • Great used book for a great price.

    Great quality for a used book, almost like new aside from a couple really light highlights. Price is amazing.

  • Inexpensive

    Great book. Great price. Book was not the edition pictured. That wouldn’t have kept me from buying, but I like to see exactly what I’m purchasing.

  • One of the most important book in the 20th century, a must read to understand social system, and civilisation degradation.

    The book I purchased is used, and repaired, but CHEAP, and fully readable. Still worth the price because the content in it.

  • Small title with a big story.

    I have not got a chance to read the book but have heard several podcasters say that everyone needs to read it. The story correlates with what is happening in the USA now.
