The U.S. Library of Congress did a study a few years back and found that "Atlas Shrugged" is the second most influential book on the planet, right behind the Bible. Despite any personal agreements you may have with Rand over the role of religion, every conservative should own this masterpiece.

Supposedly one of the most widely read books in the country, but you wouldn't know it by talking with people. My guess is that most people who read it are teenage girls and think it is a romance novel.
