★☆☆☆☆
the dumbest book ever written?
Poorly written, hard to believe, full of wooden characters and bad dialogue - totally terrible! And long-winded terrible at that. Espouses a bizaare theory of economics where just a handful of "industrialists" are actually the only important people in the world -as if markets didn't drive economies, as if the supply and demand curves weren't even involved, as if investments and team work and workers didn't have an impact on product development. As a capitalist and someone who loves both good literature and just about anything involving market theory, I was so excited to read this book. Then I read it and I found out two things about Ayn Rand: (1) she can't write, and (2) she also doesn't understand a thing about economics. Read it if you want, but wow, is it bad.
