An essential guide to the life and works of Ayn Rand, the book chronicles and summarizes her writings, presents information about her national and global impact--and the response to it--and provides the most comprehensive bibliography published to date. Written by an independent scholar who is not part of either the Ayn Rand establishment or the Ayn Rand detractor camp, "The New Ayn Rand Companion" builds on the foundation of the original. New materials about Rand's posthumous publications, the latest biographical information, and summaries of books and articles about Rand, published since her death, have been added. Burgeoning interest in Rand, the publication of her "Letters" and "Journals" and "Russian Writings," and the growing body of critical works necessitates an expanded and revised edition of the "Ayn Rand Companion." This new edition is the only general reference work that covers the complete Rand corpus, including both those works published during her life and those published to date.
