    Mark Michael Lewis lays out the 5 key ideas at the heart of Ayn Rand’s moral philosophy, showing how all 5 work together to multiple one another’s effectiveness and create a life and a lifestyle of an Ayn Rand Hero. It also details the 2 central reasons that people dislike Ayn Rand and her philosophy (outside of the fact they haven’t read her work or understood the 5 Traits of the Ayn Rand Hero).
