About Book
Dagny Taggart, president of a railway company, works tirelessly for her enterprise, while her brother constantly tries to undermine her. To save her濒危公司, she teams up with inventor Rearden to try and maintain normal business operations. However, the increasing scarcity of social resources and the disappearance of creative individuals hinder them at every turn. She confronts the mediocre masses, the lazy who constantly rely on others, and enemies determined to thwart them... Watching her dreams become impossible, she cannot explain why she feels so lonely, only able to express: "This is not the world I envisioned." A chance plane accident leads her to another Atlantis, where she encounters creators from all walks of life whom she thought had disappeared, as well as the mastermind behind all the crises - John Galt. But they declare: "We will never return to the real world!"
When thinkers go on strike, where will the world ultimately go?
Atlas Shrugged is one of Ayn Rand's most renowned novels, fully showcasing her philosophy of Objectivism and Rationalism. Set against the backdrop of a fictional American society, it depicts what the world would look like if creative individuals in every industry stopped working and disappeared. It creates an image of determined social elites fighting for their ideals. First published in 1957, this book has been a bestseller ever since.
