Editorial Review Amazon.com When it was first published in 1943, The Fountainhead--containing Ayn RandÂs daringly original literary vision with the seeds of her groundbreaking philosophy, ObjectivismÂwon immediate worldwide acclaim. This instant classic is the story of an intransigent young architect, his violent battle against conventional standards, and his explosive love affair with a beautiful woman who struggles to defeat him. This centennial edition of The Fountainhead, celebrating the controversial and eduring legacy of its author, features an afterword by RandÂs literary executor, Leonard Peikoff, offering some of Ayn RandÂs personal notes on the development of her masterwork. ÂA writer of great power. She has a subtle and ingenious mind and the capacity of writing brilliantly, beautifully, bitterly. Customer Reviews (943)

Editorial Review Book Description At the present time, the market place is more highly esteemed by more Americans than is government; this may soon be the case with a majority of the literate in other countries as well.Increasingly government is now viewed as a burden, rather than as a benefit.Yet, a political- economic system cannot continue to exist simply on the basis of a current success. Moreover, the present order is a mixture of capitalism and controls. Sooner or later, problems will develop, as they did in the nineteen thirties--and then people will have to consider what was at fault. Should there be a depression or some other huge social contagion, the lack of true answers may mean more war--perhaps right here in the United States. Mr. Erickson's book, The Stance Of Atlas, contains an examination of Ayn Rand's philosophy of Objectivism. More than that, it provides answers to some of the problems in philosophy which she had attempted to solve, but unsuccessfully. It contains 361 pages, including index--softbound. Customer Reviews (3)
Critical mistakes make for dull book
Excellent book. The book attacks Objectivism, but does not argue against Rand's true genius -- her ability to get inside the head of New Age man and describe and explain this evil being. The book does answer the question on universals.The observations on memory are brilliant. Examples of the new philosophy of Factivism include:"Name a nonexistant fact"answer the Past. The only reason for the four stars is that the book is hard to read.I have read it four times and have mastered only about 50%.Definitely geared to philosophy buffs.Another similar book is "Raselas"(spelling)
Fair but foolish, Erickson fails as debater and philosopher. |

Editorial Review Book Description CliffsNotes on The Fountainhead explores the modern classic that made Ayn Rand famous. The book carried forth the author’s anti-communist ideals and conviction that individuals should not allow their lives to be dominated in any way by the beliefs of others. Following the story of architect Howard Roark as he attempts to achieve success on his own terms, this study guide provides summaries and critical commentaries for each part within the novel. Other features that help you figure out this important work include Classic literature or modern-day treasure — you'll understand it all with expert information and insight from CliffsNotes study guides. Taking place in New York City in the 1920s and 1930s, it chronicles the efforts of architect Howard Roark to achieve success on his own terms. It is Rand's first book to carry forth her anti-communist ideals, that individuals should think and believe independently and not allow their lives or careers to be dominated in any way by the beliefs of others. As Roark's designs create a rub against the acceptable styles of the day, he continually is faced with selling out to the masses. But continually he refuses, and his career becomes one marked by his capacity to hold fast to his own intellectual and artistic innovation. Customer Reviews (5)
