Atlas Shrugged is one of those books I had to force myself to read..the first time. The first 100 pages is somewhat slow, but after that, I couldn't put it down. It truly made me think. Of course, at the time, I was working for a company called Galt Controls, owned by a man who also owned a company called Rearden Metals *chuckle*.

I just looked on my bookshelf, and I've got a few copies of Rand books that have gone among the missing (ugh..a peeve of mine!)

Anyway, The Fountainhead is another good one. - I've got it on my list of books to 'replace' since it's wandered off. We the Living is another one that makes you think.

But if you're interested on doing any research into the philosophy of Objectivism, I have some links around here somewhere I could send you privately.

Glad to hear you liked it...I've never been disappointed in any of her books.
