Signed limited edition of Ayn Rand's ''Atlas Shrugged.'' Random House: New York: 1957. Rand signs the tenth anniversary edition number 1,759 of 2,000 upon the limitation page, ''Ayn Rand''. Considered a definitive novel of the 20th century, ''Atlas Shrugged'' is Rand's skillful fictional vehicle for her philosophy of individualism. She states in the novel's appendix, ''My philosophy, in essence, is the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute.'' Interest in ''Atlas Shrugged'' was renewed after the publication of a 2009 article by Stephen Moore in the ''Wall Street Journal,'' though it had inspired scores of leaders before then. 6'' x 8.75'' book, in blue cloth boards with gilt lettering and blue top edges, is housed in the original 6.5'' x 9'' cardboard slipcase. Light shelf wear to slipcase, else near fine. Hinges starting to separate, tear to rear free endpaper and previous owner's bookplate on dedication page, otherwise an immaculate copy.
