Anthem [another edition]

by Ayn Rand, New Century Books (Editor)

Overview

Caxton Printers, who used to own the United States copyrights to Anthem by Ayn Rand, as per an agreement with Pamphleteers, was VERY kind and VERY open about explaining the copyright of Anthem, and how it came to be not renewed in the U.S.; and we would like to add, on their behalf, that their copyrights are still in force for Anthem in Canada. Neither we nor they are in a current position to research the possible copyrights for other countries, so that is possibly still up in the air. It behooves me, since they have been so forthcoming about this-- to encourage you to buy the only hardcover edition available.

About the Author

Ayn Rand (1905-1982) is best known for her books Anthem, Atlas Shrugged, and The Fountainhead. The Russian born American author and philosopher was very critical of communism and an advocate of capitalism. Rand's unique philosophy, Objectivism, has gained a worldwide audience. The fundamentals of her philosophy are put forth in three nonfiction books, Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology, The Virtues of Selfishness, and Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal. Though her books and beliefs have faced much criticism from academia, she is still championed by many contemporary conservatives and libertarians.
