Introduction
Explore Atlas Shrugged offers podcasts and discussion questions on Ayn Rand's epic novel Atlas Shrugged by Diana Hsieh (Ph.D, Philosophy, CU Boulder). They are intended for any fan of the novel seeking to explore its events, characters, and ideas in depth, as well as for any leader of or participant in an Atlas Shrugged Reading Group.These podcasts and discussion questions are broken into 20 sessions, each covering about 65 pages of the novel. That is the format that Front Range Objectivism is using for its very successful Atlas Shrugged Reading Groups.
Completed Sessions: Session 1 — Session 2 — Session 3 — Session 4 — Session 5 — Session 6 — Session 7 — Session 8 — Session 9 — Session 10 — Session 11 — Session 12 — Session 13 — Session 14 — Session 15 — Session 16 — Sessions 17 & 18 — Session 19 — Session 20
Please note that the pagination of the two larger hardcover and softcover editions differ from that of the smaller mass market paperback. I recommend using the larger edition: I don't always list page numbers for the smaller edition on this web site.
