Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
New York Times bestsellerTracing the emergence of Ayn Rands philosophy of objectivism in the 1940s to her presentday influence, Darryl Cunninghams latest work of graphicnonfiction investigation leads readers to the heart of the global financial crisis of 2008. Cunningham uses Rands biography to illuminate the policies that led to the economic crash in the U.S. and in Europe, and how her philosophy continues to affect todays politics and policies, starting with her most noted disciple, economist Alan Greenspan (former chairman of the Federal Reserve). Cunningham also shows how rightwing conservatives, libertarians, and the Tea Party movement have coopted Rands teachings (and inherent contradictions) to promote personal gain and profit at the expense of the middle class. Tackling the complexities of economics by distilling them down to a series of concepts accessible to all age groups, Cunningham ultimately delivers a devastating analysis of our current economic world.Praise for Darryl Cunningham:It takes other authors whole books to say what Darryl Cunningham can say in a single illustration. Jon Ronson, author of The Men Who Stare at GoatsCunninghams art has clean lines and a continuity that is often graceful, charming, and endearing. He speaks with quiet authority on his subjects, but is careful to cite a whole range of sources and research papers. IndependentIts good to see the arguments presented so well, clearly, and concisely . . . Cunningham delivers his message with style, great art, even moments of outright comedy.'Forbidden Planet
