Publisher Description "The God of the Machine" presents an original theory of history and a bold defense of individualism as the source of moral and political progress. When it was published in 1943, Isabel Paterson's work provided fresh intellectual support for the endangered American belief in individual rights, limited government, and economic freedom. Her book placed her in the vanguard of the free-enterprise movement now sweeping the world. It will be essential to students of American history, political theory, and literature. The Nile Staff Review Fans of Ayn Rand (among others) will find this non-fiction tour de force to be a riveting and compulsive read. First published in 1943, it covers virtually the entire history of mankind's political organisation, from hunter gatherer societies, through antiquity and the evolution of modern liberal democracy, to the great political crises of the West in Paterson's own age. Linking everything together is her potent metaphor of political economy as an engine to channel the raw energy of human assertion and creativity. Breathtaking in scope and execution.
