What can you say about Ayn Rand? I can't imagine anyone reading her two main books
without being affected and provoked into examining and re-examining one's ideas
and fundamental premises. Then again, many have, so once again I don't really know
what to say about Rands overall impact and place in the history of ideas. I note that
in Readers Digest annual poll of the 10 books that have most changed your life,
Atlas Shrugged comes in second every year. (The first place holder is left
as an exercise to the reader)
