For students, teachers and smart-thinkers, our carefully structured, jargon-free series provides the base knowledge needed to get your head around complicated theories of brilliant intellectuals. Written in an accessible and engaging way, each book takes you through the life and influences of one great thinker, before taking a deep dive into three of their key theories in plain English. Smart thinking made easy!
Who the Hell is Ayn Rand? follows the life and works of the controversial, libertarian political thinker and novelist, Ayn Rand. Known for her polarizing beliefs on laissez-faire capitalism, individual rights and ethical egoism, Rand primarily conveyed her core ideas through her novels. Beginning with Rand's life story to find out who she was as a person, the book then goes on to look at how events and people impacted upon her thinking, before examining her approach to politics, capitalism and morality. Above all, this study will seek to unpack what objectivism - her own philosophy and guide to life - stands for.
