Product Information Please Enjoy a Sample of This MP3 Product: (Download Available for Customers Worldwide) RETURN OF THE PRIMITIVE by Ayn Rand and Peter Schwartz read by Bernadette Dunne Philosophy • Unabridged DESCRIPTION: Subtitle: The Anti-Industrial Revolution The New Left cultural movement of the 1960s and early 1970s condemned everything America stood for: individualism, material wealth, science, technology, capitalism. The movement achieved limited political success but it brought about vast cultural changes that remain with us today because it faced little or no fundamental intellectual opposition. Ayn Rand was the exception, and she opposed the New Left in her 1971 anthology of essays The New Left: The Anti-Industrial Revolution. Return of the Primitive is an expanded edition of that original book and contains Rand’s two additional essays “Racism” and “Global Balkanization.” Also featured are three essays written after her death by Peter Schwartz, analyzing some of the ideologies that the New Left helped spawn, such as multiculturalism and environmentalism. REVIEWS: “Ayn Rand is a writer of great power. She has a subtle and ingenious mind and the capacity of writing brilliantly, beautifully, bitterly.”—New York Times Book Review AYN RAND (1905–1982) was born in Russia, graduated from the University of Leningrad, and came to the United States in 1926. She published her first novel in 1936. With the publication of The Fountainhead in 1943, she achieved a spectacular and enduring success and her unique philosophy, objectivism, gained a worldwide following.
