Number of words: 323 - Number of pages: 2

.... Miss Rand dictates that true happiness can only be found by defying these principles. I would have to say that although Miss Rand's Objetivism works well with in the realm of the book, I fail to see it in the "real world." In the "real world" these underlying principles are ever- changing. Brought out by constantly advancing ideas, technology, and influences, old conventions become replaced everyday.
