Notes

General Note
"With an introduction by Leonard Peikoff"--Cover. His "Introduction to the 35th anniversary edition" (p. ix-xv) dated September 1991.
Description
The book's female protagonist, Dagny Taggart, struggles to manage a transcontinental railroad amid the pressures and restrictions of massive bureaucracy. Her antagonistic reaction to a libertarian group seeking an end to government regulation is later echoed and modified in her encounter with a utopian community, Galt's Gulch, whose members regard self-determination rather than collective responsibility as the highest ideal.
