Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal
of Ayn Rand, Nathaniel Branden, Alan Greenspan, Robert Hessen
Description
The foundations of capitalism are being battered by a flood of altruism, which is the cause of the modern world's collapse. This is the view of Ayn Rand, a view so radically opposed to prevailing attitudes that it constitutes a major philosophic revolution. In this series of essays, she presents her stand on the persecution of big business, the causes of war, the default of conservatism, and the evils of altruism. Here is a challenging new look at modern society by one of the most provocative intellectuals on the American scene. Â This edition includes two articles by Ayn Rand that did not appear in the hardcover edition: âThe Wreckage of the Consensus,â which presents the Objectivistsâ views on Vietnam and the draft; and âRequiem for Man,â an answer to the Papal encyclical Progresso Populorum.
