Ayn Rand's
Atlas Shrugged is the story of Dagny Taggart, the fierce, childlike woman who runs Taggart Transcontinental
Railroads.
Hank Rearden is the introspective man behind Rearden coal, Rearden ore, Rearden iron, Rearden
steel, and finally Rearden Metal-- his greatest achievement. Beyond compare is Francisco D'Aconia -- the brilliant, exuberant aristocrat. The only man who represents a challenge and a
stimulant for Rearden and Dagny-- the only man worthy of their love and desire.
And then there's the mysterious "John
Galt", whom everyone in the world points to as the root of their ever-increasing problems, asking "Who is John Galt?". A plea of desperation.

This book unites the ideas of metaphysics, ethics, economics, and romantic love.
The story involves an intriguing
mystery and a tremendous struggle.
It is a masterpiece.
