Ayn Rand Knihy

Atlas pokrčil pokrčil – to je dosť nezvyčajný názov knihy. Taký je aj Ayn Randovej, spisovateľky a filozofky. Toto dielo je považované za najlepšie, za vrchol jej celoživotnej tvorby. Zabudovala doň prvky záhady, mravných zásad, metafyziky, politiky, ekonómie, a samozrejme, aj lásky a sexu. Autorka píše o tom, aký vplyv majú na svet šikovní ľudia (prvotní hýbatelia), ako sa na nich iní priživujú, prečo a ako to funguje, a čo sa stane, keď vstúpia do štrajku. Pomôže nám pochopiť myslenie, pohnútky i činy kladných či záporných postáv. Ak ste si vedomí ubúdajúcej slobody, rozrastajúcej sa vládnej moci a čudujete sa, prečo a ako sa to deje, táto kniha je práve pre vás! Je to román a zároveň filozofia slobodného života.

This centennial edition of "The Fountainhead," celebrating the controversial and enduring legacy of its author, features an afterword by Rand's literary executor, Leonard Peikoff, offering some of Ayn Rand's personal notes on the development of her masterwork, and a Reader's Guide to her writings and philosophy.

Peopled by larger-than-life heroes and villains, charged with towering questions of good and evil, Atlas Shrugged is Ayn Rand’s magnum opus: a philosophical revolution told in the form of an action thriller—nominated as one of America’s best-loved novels by PBS’s The Great American Read. Who is John Galt? When he says that he will stop the motor of the world, is he a destroyer or a liberator? Why does he have to fight his battles not against his enemies but against those who need him most? Why does he fight his hardest battle against the woman he loves? You will know the answer to these questions when you discover the reason behind the baffling events that play havoc with the lives of the amazing men and women in this book. You will discover why a productive genius becomes a worthless playboy...why a great steel industrialist is working for his own destruction...why a composer gives up his career on the night of his triumph...why a beautiful woman who runs a transcontinental railroad falls in love with the man she has sworn to kill. Atlas Shrugged, a modern classic and Rand’s most extensive statement of Objectivism—her groundbreaking philosophy—offers the reader the spectacle of human greatness, depicted with all the poetry and power of one of the twentieth century’s leading artists.

A collection of essays that sets forth the moral principles of Objectivism, Ayn Rand's controversial, groundbreaking philosophy. Since their initial publication, Rand's fictional works—Anthem, The Fountainhead, and Atlas Shrugged—have had a major impact on the intellectual scene. The underlying theme of her famous novels is her philosophy, a new morality—the ethics of rational self-interest—that offers a robust challenge to altruist-collectivist thought. Known as Objectivism, her divisive philosophy holds human life—the life proper to a rational being—as the standard of moral values and regards altruism as incompatible with man's nature. In this series of essays, Rand asks why man needs morality in the first place, and arrives at an answer that redefines a new code of ethics based on the virtue of selfishness.
