Summary: Unnecessary for this particular book
Comment: For a book which takes three hours or less to read, and ideas which are common pop-philosphy, Cliff's Notes for "Anthem" is a little over-kill. The essays are more difficult than the original book. The entire concept of having Cliffnotes for a book like "Anthem" is antithetical to one of the points Rand is trying to make, to think and assess for one's self.
Her thesis comes to a simple idea: it is up to the individual to think for the individual. "Anthem" is just an allegory to present the idea.
I recommend this, but barely. It can help the reader unwilling to read Rand's short book, or unable to process her basic tenets.

Summary: A surprise
Comment: I have read Anthem many times and I was pleasantly surprised by this cliffsnotes summary and analysis of the book. It includes a short biography of Ayn Rand but the bulk of the book is spent on a detailed going over of Ayn Rand's plot, theme, and characters. It is fascinating to read an intelligent analysis of the characters I love. The gems of the book are the three critical essays; The Meaning and Importance of "I", The Role of Free Will in Anthem, and the Regression of a Future Collectivist Society into a Second Dark Age.
This book is written by an Objectivist author and is definately worth buying.
