Ayn Rand, author of the best-selling novels, The" Fountainhead "and "Atlas Shrugged," is beloved by millions of readers, and equally hated. Her novels and her revolutionary philosophy of Objectivism have acquired a world-wide following. They have also created a world-wide legion of frustrated readers who find it difficult to permeate her lengthy tomes. However, Ayn Rand is undeniably a solid step in the literary canon as well as in the progression of philosophy. Until now, there has been no simple, easy-to-read introduction to her books and ideas. "Ayn Rand For Beginners" sheds a new light on Ms. Rand's otherwise seemingly impenetrable words and philosophy. In clear, down-to-earth language, it explains Ayn Rand's books and ideas to a new generation of readers.
