About this listen

Ayn Rand and her philosophical school, Objectivism, have had a considerable influence upon American popular culture, yet the true story of her life and work has yet to be told. In this book, Jeff Walker debunks the cult-like following that developed around the author of the classics Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead - a cult that persists even today.

Critic Reviews

“Walker's account is well researched and clearly written,.. A solid contribution to 20th-century intellectual history.” (Library Journal)
"Comprehensive... will infuriate those who admire Rand and hearten those who hate her.” (Liberty)
