Atlas Shrugged
by Ayn Rand
www.trainweb.com/books/bookrand.htm

Atlas Shrugged is the story of Dagny Taggart, the woman who runs Taggart Transcontinental Railroads. Hank Rearden is the man behind Rearden Coal, Rearden ore, Rearden iron, Rearden steel, and finally Rearden metal-- his greatest achievement. And then there's the mysterious "John Galt", who everyone in the world points to as the root of their problems, asking "Who is John Galt?" whenever life gets tough. A plea of desperation.

This book unites the ideas of metaphysics, ethics, economics, and romantic love. The story is both a mystery and a tremendous struggle. This book contains a fantastic formulation, and application of Objectivism. Some of the speeches of this book are reprinted in For the New Intellectual.

I would venture to say that this book is the most highly quoted work of Rand's. It is her masterpiece.

--- J. Will Pierce

This book is where my philosophy on life and my interest in railroads intersect.

-- Steve Grande
