Reason, Individualism, Capitalism. Am I queen for a day yet? A must read for anyone who values their mind and what they produce. I am reminded daily of the themes in this book as I deal with increasingly unreasonable, government drones re-interpreting codes to make our lives miserable. Sometimes I wish I had the book with me to plop them on the head with it (FYI this is a joke, I would never hit a person I did not birth or was not taller than). Alternatively if anyone knows where the producers are congregating let me know. I am not sure I am worthy of admittance yet but I am working on it. :-)

For the frustrated architect in all of us. Once you pick it up you win't put it down until you finish. I actually love all of Ayn Rands work.

Provocative reading read her at 12 and had mixed emotions as a young Black kid about her "Art of Selfishness"

THIS BOOK IS THE BIGGEST WASTE OF MY TIME I HAVE EVER COMMITTED! NEVER READ THIS FIVE DAY LONG BOOK. I NEVER WANT TO SEE ANOTHER COPY OF THIS ATROCITY AGAIN!

Ayn Rand is by far one of my all time favorites. Although this book isn't my favorite of hers, this is a must read. It's all about a man who wants to stop the world, literally. Technology is great, but he's sick of the corruption. This book like most of Rand's is not for the faint hearted, it's 1168 pages, but well worth the time spent.

I hate how cold the books are. Ouch. I don't think Ayn Rand ever hugged anybody. Its the best screening test I've ever come across. If you love Ayn Rand, its unlikely we'll ever be friends. I know, saves us so much trouble.

I really enjoy books by Ayn Rand. Both of these novels are interesting and representative of her philosophy. Though they are a bit long, they are definitely worth the reading.

This is an amazing, amazing book of thought. Through the novel Rand illustrates her philosophy of Objectivism. As an artist--and one who studied with architects--finding myself feeling like the black sheep in the lot most of the time, I was astonished. The Fountainhead articulated a lot of social and individual behavior that I have understood and also been frustrated by. The idea of the creative soul being genuine and self-directed as spiritual self-respect, driving against a crowd, against a society where self-worth is gained from outside praise, is an idea everyone should ponder.

REad this book! It will change your life! The way you look at others--why you find yourself impatient with insincerity and false social behavior, and the way you look at yourself. Integrity!
