Overall this is a rather interesting read. I disagree fundamentally with the Randian philosophy, but still want to read Atlas Shrugged. I won't pay for it, however. It'll be a library book (supported by taxes).
Really though, Ayn Rand is a cult more than actual philosophy. Disagreement and discussion are not allowed, and real evidence which contradicts her precepts is ignored. Ayn Rand's "philosophy" is "intelligent design" (creationism) for economics.

HAvving recently read Atlas Shrugged, I would recomend it. Its a good read. Athough her philosophy is DOA (would never actually work) some ideas can be used in a more diluted form.
The story is pretty good, and its well written.
