Book Reviews of Atlas Shrugged

Book Review: A Lesson for today's world
Summary: 5 Stars

I haven't read this book in 25 years. Completely forgot about it from high school/college. Our book club read it for April. The book is ageless. It is so true for today.

Tax the inventors, builders, entrepreneurs to death and you will see what will happen to The United States when you do. It is the people who own businesses, who build--have the ideas, who run this nation. You get greedy self serving people who don't know what they are doing and they run it in the ground. It tells you right off it is the people who use their minds, use their own ideas, who are NOT sheep and what they will do to make advancements for this country.

GREAT BOOK. Well worth the 60 hours it took to read.

Summary of Atlas Shrugged

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
