Miss Ayn Rand had already revolutionized whole world with her first book named as 'The Fountainhead'. In this book she mainly concentrated on explaining that only individualism is important. However, in her second book she explained that society also plays an important role in the life of an individual.
This is the story of railroad enterprise and wrong policy of irrational people which caused brave and talented people to loose their moral value and self respect. Story starts with Dagny Taggart a woman who is trapped in the middle of bad men and their policy of parasitical adventure which wants any work done even at the cost of self value.
Since Dagny always wants everything to be done in a rational way, She fights for the values against executive body of U.S.A in which her own brother is her enemy. Dagny always believes that working for wrong people is not a bad thing. It is the only chance through which we can bring the necessary changes in our people. Meanwhile story becomes a cause of a suspense since an unknown man starts taking away talented and skilled people throughout America on some secret destination.
While there are others in the story who believe that we must stop working for people who can't understand creative power of an individual and does not respect his skills and use his skills only for self profit.
Hank Reardent is such a guy and he is Dagny's friend who believes that working for wrong people or people who are not rational is a crime against humanity. We should not give our hard earned self respect for the sake of looters who feed themselves only on the skilled people. There is Francisco D'anconio who is also an industrialist and he himself starts destroying his empire of industries since he also believes that giving our talent and skills to people who can't understand rational approach is a highest crime. Working for looters, moochers or parasite is a crime against ethics and morality.
People always tell us that helping others without asking for favor is a good thing. People always tell us doing a work of social service without asking anything for self can lead us to a life of greatness. People even tell us that helping a poor and giving them money is a great thing. If you too think so then you have to change your thinking. The big question will be why? Ayn Rand has explained it in her breath taking novel of all time. Welcome to read one of the greatest novels of the century which changed the life of millions.
Novel is a masterpiece by Ayn rand which has established itself in the leading list of top 30 novels of the century. One not only learns but believes that asking for the payment of our work is the most important thing to do. Why working for wrong people is a highest crime? Why our self creativity is our asset and why we should not sacrifice it for others?
While reading this we totally established ourselves towards Dagny Taggard's side who believes having philanthropic and altruistic work is great but as novel progresses and mystery of that unknown man who is taking away talent unfolds, our side changes. The main character of that unknown man is introduced very late in the novel so mystery and enthusiasm starts picking up as we unfold every page. Join the journey to know Who was John Galt and why he fought for saving rationality.
