After the publication of Atlas Shrugged in 1957, Ayn Rand occasionally lectured in order to bring her philosophy of Objectivism to a wider audience and apply it to current cultural and political issues. These taped lectures and the question-and-answer sessions that followed added not only an eloquent new dimension to Ayn Rand's ideas and beliefs, but a fresh and spontaneous insight into Ayn Rand herself.Here, Rand presents her provocative ideas in a personable question-and-answer session from which one can gain new insights and a fuller appreciation of her thought and a sense of what she was like as a person.
