¿Quién es AYN RAND? Pocos intelectuales del siglo XX han sido tan influyentes -y controvertidos- como la novelista y filósofa Ayn Rand. Su pensamiento sigue teniendo un profundo impacto, sobre todo en quienes llegan a ella a través de sus novelas Atlas Shrugged y The Fountainhead, con sus mensajes centrales sobre el individualismo, la autoestima y el derecho a vivir sin las imposiciones de los demás. Aunque ignorada o despreciada por algunos académicos, tradicionalistas, progresistas e intelectuales públicos, sigue siendo una gran influencia para muchos de los principales legisladores, asesores políticos, economistas, empresarios e inversores del mundo. ¿Por qué sigue siendo tan influyente la obra de Rand? Ayn Rand: An Introduction ilumina la importancia de Rand, detallando su forma de entender la realidad y la naturaleza humana, y explora la fascinación y los debates actuales en torno a sus conclusiones sobre el conocimiento, la moral, la política, la economía, el gobierno, los asuntos públicos, la estética y la literatura. El libro también las sitúa en el contexto de su vida y su época, mostrando lo revolucionarias que fueron y cómo han influido y siguen influyendo en los debates sobre política pública. 10
