THIS miserable phone book is the face that launched a thousand douchebags? This hollow, vapid, fallacy-infested dreck? This tealest of all teal deer? (  ) IsraOverZero | Sep 23, 2023 | Dear Ayn Rand, I have read your book, and I have to admit, It was amazing, so real. Interestingly, I know the characters in person, the men of mind and ability versus looters, I have met them throughout my life. As a matter of fact, I have worked with them. I am going to mention some quotes which are so appealing to me : "Contradictions do not exist. Whenever you think you are facing a contradiction, check your premises. You will find that one of them is wrong" You have no idea how many problems I have solved with your words, how many arguments I have won and how many processes I have improved. Now conflicts resolution is my first class problem solving tools since there is no conflict in nature. "If any part of your uncertainty, is a conflict between your heart and your mind - follow your mind" I found out that my emotions are full of filters, greed, arrogance and biases. Can I have a pure heart? I will try my best, but until then I will follow my mind. I doubt that a pure heart and a rational mind have any conflicts. "Reason is our only source of knowledge" I do not think reason is the only source of knowledge, but I am positive that reason is a missing piece of puzzle in our lives. "I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine" (  ) point5a | Sep 5, 2023 | La rebelión de Atlas (trad. Domingo García) Ayn Rand Publicado: 1957 | 1312 páginas Novela Aventuras Ciencia ficción Filosófico Intriga Romántico Esta es la historia de un hombre que dijo que pararía el motor del mundo… y lo hizo. ¿Era un destructor? ¿O el más grande de los liberadores? ¿Por qué tuvo que librar la batalla, no contra sus enemigos, sino contra aquellos que más lo necesitaban, especialmente contra la mujer que amaba? ¿Cuál es el motor del mundo… y el de cada hombre? Hallarás la respuesta a estas cuestiones cuando descubras la razón tras los desconcertantes eventos que dan al traste con las vidas de los protagonistas de esta historia.Tremendamente ambiciosa, con una estructura argumental brillantemente ejecutada y un irresistible suspense, La rebelión de Atlas presenta un asombroso panorama de la vida humana. Desde el genio de la producción que se convierte en un vulgar playboy, hasta el gran industrial del acero que no sabe que está trabajando para destruirse a sí mismo, pasando por el filósofo que se convierte en pirata, el compositor que renuncia a su carrera en la noche de su mayor triunfo, la mujer que dirige un ferrocarril transcontinental y el empleado de más bajo rango en los túneles de su Terminal.Has de prepararte, al leer esta novela, para poner en tela de juicio hasta la más profunda de tus convicciones. Esta es una historia de misterio que no trata del asesinato del cuerpo de un hombre, sino del asesinato (y renacimiento) de su espíritu. Es una revolución filosófica, contada en forma de una historia de acción repleta de violencia, romance y aventuras. ¿Cómo dices? ¿Que es imposible? Bueno, esa es la primera de tus convicciones que tendrás que plantearte.«A todos aquellos que tras leer El manantial me han preguntado cómo poner en práctica las ideas que contenía, quiero decirles que en esta novela respondo a esas cuestiones y que El manantial no es más que un preludio para La rebelión de Atlas», Ayn Rand. libreriarofer | Aug 20, 2023 | Mid.

"Despite laborious monologues, the reader will stay with this strange world, borne along by its story and eloquent flow of ideas."  "to warn contemporary America against abandoning its factories, neglecting technological progress and abolishing the profit motive seems a little like admonishing water against running uphill."  "inspired" and "monumental" but "(t)o the Christian, everyone is redeemable. But Ayn Rand’s ethical hardness may repel those who most need her message: that charity should be voluntary…. She should not have tried to rewrite the Sermon on the Mount."  Atlas Shrugged represents a watershed in the history of world literature.  Read more at: http://www.nationalreview.com/article... "We struggle to be just. For we cannot help feeling at least a sympathetic pain before the sheer labor, discipline, and patient craftsmanship that went to making this mountain of words. But the words keep shouting us down. In the end that tone dominates. But it should be its own antidote, warning us that anything it shouts is best taken with the usual reservations with which we might sip a patent medicine. Some may like the flavor. In any case, the brew is probably without lasting ill effects. But it is not a cure for anything. Nor would we, ordinarily, place much confidence in the diagnosis of a doctor who supposes that the Hippocratic Oath is a kind of curse." "remarkably silly" and "can be called a novel only by devaluing the term" ... "From almost any page of Atlas Shrugged, a voice can be heard, from painful necessity, commanding: 'To the gas chambers — go!'"

This is the story of a man who said that he would stop the motor of the world, and did. Is he a destroyer or a liberator? Why does he have to fight his battle not against his enemys but against those who need him most? Why does he fight his hardest battle against the woman he loves? You will learn the answers to these questions when you discover the reason behind the baffling events that play havoc with the lives of the amazing men and women in this remarkable book. Tremendous in scope, breathtaking in its suspense, "Atlas shrugged" is Ayn Rand's magnum opus, which launched an ideology and a movement. With the publication of this work in 1957, Rand gained an instant following and became a phenomenon. "Atlas shrugged" emerged as a premier moral apologia for Capitalism, a defense that had an electrifying effect on millions of readers (and now listeners) who have never heard Capitalism defended in other than technical terms.

Belerend weliswaar, maar laat je ook identificeren met de personages en zelfs hun vijanden 'haten'.
Een vreemd, uniek boek. Maar toch niet echt aan te raden, tenzij je echt houdt van lezen.
Voor wie houdt van treinen.
Een grote leeservaring, vier sterren daarom. Drie is te weinig voor de ontzaglijke scope van dit boek.
Voor wie gefascineerd is door Atlantis? Een beetje wel.
Moet je haar op je tanden voor hebben, om dit te lezen. Getuige ook de wisselvallige reacties op sociale media van lezers. Sommigen geven vijf sterren, anderen slechts éen. (
