SRP 2010 REVIEW: A wonderful study of self-interest in the 21st century and beyond. For those who can't stomach Atlas Shrugged's length, this book is an acceptable substitute. More accurately classified as science philosophy than science fiction, Beggars in Spain is a wonderful exploration into what happens when science outpaces society.
