Title: WHOA, HOLD UP!
Review: Rand's book is certainly not "lacking plot" (!!!) or a "scientific proof of lassez-faire capitalism." In a broad way, it hints at what a proof would look like, but any intelligent reader knows that much work must still be done.Atlas is an extremely fast-paced action story... and a novel of ideas which should be intriguing to anyone who cares about life or wonders about anything. Don't turn your head and cry, "No, I don't want to listen."I can't recommend this book highly enough. I can't conceive of how it could NOT be a learning and enriching experience for ALL readers. It stands next to "The Man Without Qualities" and "The Brothers Karamazov" as a masterpiece of philosophical literature (a difficult genre)... Umberto Eco and Albert Camus are little tiddly! -wink players in philosophical literature compared to Rand. Plus, she's more fun
