Synopsis:
Identifies the roots of Nazism in the philosophical ideas of the worship of unreason, demand for self-sacrifice, and elevation of society over the individual, and argues that these ideas are present in America today
Review: "Offers a truly revolutionary idea...The book is clear, tight, disciplined, beautifully structured, and brilliantly reasoned. Its style is clear and hard as crystal--and as sparkling... As to my personal reaction, I can express it best by paraphrasing a line from Atlas Shrugged 'It's so wonderful to see a great, new, crucial achievement which is not mine!'"--Ayn Rand
"Extraordinarily perceptive...frightening insights...Everyone concerned with the collectivist trend in today's world should read this book."--Alan Greenspan "A fascinating weave of German history, philosophic determinism, and Objectivist polemic."--Chicago Tribune
