Description
Atlas Shrugged is the "second most influential book for Americans today" after the Bible, according to a joint survey conducted by the Library of Congress and the Book of the Month Club.
This is the story of a man who said that he would stop the motor of the world - and did. Is he a destroyer or a liberator? Why does he fight his hardest battle not against his enemies, but against the woman he loves?
Tremendous in scope, breathtaking in its suspense, Atlas Shrugged is Ayn Rand's magnum opus and launched an ideology and a movement. With the publication of this work in 1957, Rand gained an instant following and became a phenomenon. Atlas Shrugged emerged as a premier moral apologia for capitalism, a defense that had an electrifying effect on millions of readers (and now listeners) who had never heard capitalism defended in other than technical terms.

The foundations of capitalism are being battered by a flood of altruism, which is the cause of the modern world's collapse. This was the view of Ayn Rand, a view so radically opposed to prevailing attitudes that it constituted a major philosophic revolution. In this series of essays, she presented her stand on the persecution of big business, the causes of war, the default of conservatism, and the evils of altruism.

All expressions of individualism have been suppressed in his world. Obedience to the collective is so deeply ingrained that the very word “I” has been erased.

Principles of Economics is a university-level textbook in economics that offers a clear and concise exploration of the most important economic concepts. This book is unapologetically Austrian in its approach. It tackles major economic concepts and topics independently, but in a logical sequence aimed at delivering the listener an understanding of economics at an individual and societal level, and the widespread implications of economics as a topic.

Histoire
Almost 175 years have passed since the Communist Manifesto was written and circulated by Marx and Engels. Some statistics point to it being one of the most widely read and distributed works of political science and economics, despite the core ideology that has led to hundreds of millions of murders worldwide at the hands of those who fervently "believed" and "reformed" society by its decrees. It's about time something was written to help challenge and potentially unwind some of the moral, intellectual, social, and economic damage done since.

In The Fiat Standard, world-renowned economist Saifedean Ammous applies his unique analytical lens to the fiat monetary system, explaining it as a feat of engineering and technology just as he did for bitcoin in his global best seller The Bitcoin Standard. This time, Ammous delves into the world's earlier shift from the gold standard to today's system of government-backed fiat money—outlining the fiat standard's purposes and failures; deriving the wider economic, political, and social implications of its use; and examining how bitcoin will affect it over time.

As CSO of the Human Rights Foundation, Gladstein is uniquely positioned to detail the rise of Bitcoin from cypherpunk dream to the real-life Bitcoin stories happening to real people across the globe.

Worthwhile to learn from
You'd think this book was written after the distopian covid pandemic, not before. I replayed several chapters over again to better absorb what was being presented in the conversations between characters.
The narrator does an excellent job, having a few different voices of his own, kind of like Dick Hill had.

70 years old and more relevant today than ever
Great story and we'll out together. Writing repeats and some segments seem drawn out and a bit overstated however it's a great book that puts forth a broad topic.
It is read well, the orator has a pleasant voice, isn't irritating and reads it at a good pace with good vocal changes for characters and emotion.
Should be mandatory reading but I can see how a certain political leaning wouldn't wouldn't allow it as it competes with their agenda, unfortunately that political leaning has majority control over schools and universities... and look where we are now...

Dated but a good story
At times it read like a 50s detective novel. The political dogma of Ms Rand was extreme but to be expected. The story held together well and except for John Galt’s tiresome sermon near the end it was a delightful read/listen. Narrator Hurt was brilliant, navigating all the character voices with subtle clarity. I’d recommend it to anyone seeking perspective from a voice from the right, even though it screams a bit much.
