Hayek's warning against the dangers of state control over the means of production was not
heeded when it was first published in 1944. He discusses individualism and collectivism, economic

an introduction commenting on the rise of socialism after WWII and the transitions from communism
to capitalism in Eastern Europe, plus three prefaces from previous editions.

"Who is John Gault?" He said he would stop the motor of the world... and he did. Is he a destroyer or a liberator?
Why does he fight his battle, not against his enemies but against those who need him most? One

murder and rebirth of the human spirit. Tremendous in scope and profound in
meaning. Although this is pure fiction, Atlas Shrugged is an apt commentary on the state of humanity and
is considered a modern classic.
