"REASON AND MORALITY ARE THE ONLY WE/^ '' KiS THAT DETERMINE THE COURSE OF HISTORY. THE COLLECTIVIST." .OPPED THEM BECAUSE THEY HAD NO RIGHT TO CARRY THEM. PiCK THEM UP: YOU HAVE."
This book is Ayn Rand's call to American youth to reject the tribal, conventional irrationality of the New Left and to grasp the need of a philosophical revolution founded on the supremacy of reason, with individualism, self-interest, science, technology, and progress as its consequences. There is nothing new about the New Left; it is the last gasp of an outworn philosophy. This is the view presented by Ayn Rand in a critical analysis of such superior perceptiveness and originality that it ranks as a landmark in the history of contemporary ideas. THE NEW LEFT: THE ANTI-INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION is a brilliant addition to the works of one of America's most influential thinkers.
