Ayn Rand remains a truly significant figure of modern philosophy.
Her unique vision of a world in which man, relying on reason, acts
wholly for his own good is skillfully developed and illustrated in
her most famous novels, Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead. But
Rand's first novel, We the Living, a lesser-known but no less
important book, offers an early form of the author's nascent
philosophy-the philosophy Rand later called Objectivism. In the
second edition, Robert Mayhew once again brings together
pre-eminent scholars of Rand's writing. The edition includes three
new chapters, as well as an epilogue by renowned Rand-scholar
Leonard Peikoff. In part a history of We the Living, from its
earliest drafts to the Italian film later based upon it, Mayhew's
collection goes on to explore the enduring significance of Rand's
first novel as a work both of philosophy and of literature. For Ayn
Rand scholars and fans alike, this enhanced second edition is a
compelling examination of a novel that set the tone for some of the
most influential philosophical literature to follow.
