Robert Mayhew is professor of philosophy at Seton Hall University.
Not only is Dr. Mayhew's book the first compilation of scholarly
essays on Ayn Rand's classic novel The Fountainhead, it also
contains some brilliant work and insights of many of the top Ayn
Rand scholars working today. I'm very excited to see that The
Fountainhead-one of the greatest and most popular novels of the
20th century-is now receiving the kind of scholarly attention that
it clearly deserves.

Institute*
Whether you are interested in Ayn Rand's The Fountainhead as a
cultural phenomenon, a literary creation or a philosophical
manifesto, this collection of essays illuminates it with insights,
large and small, on every page. It has given me a deeper
appreciation for every aspect of this great novel and for its
author.
