John W. Robbins
Trade paperback, 382 pages, [1997] 2006
Without a Prayer has been praised by U.S. Representative Ron Paul ("A brilliantly insightful analysis of Ayn Rand's influential philosophy"); Edmund Opitz of the Foundation
for Economic Education ("A well-structured argument is a work of art; to follow this one is an exhilarating experience"); D. James Kennedy ("This is a powerful book--a book of strong
reasoning, sound apologetics, passionate persuasion, and brilliant logic"); and Jay E. Adams ("His chapters on epistemology and on values are worth the price of the book"). Dr.
Robbins discusses not only the philosophy of Ayn Rand, but also criticizes the principal books of her disciples.
