Thirty-five years after her death, the legacy of Russian American writer and thinker Ayn Rand is alive and well. Her libertarian, 'objectivist' philosophy has earned her a fan base among top Republicans and Silicon valley CEOs alike. So why is she still so relevant today?

We hear from Yaron Brook, Chairman of the Ayn Rand Institute in California. Plus, some say her legacy is expressing itself in President Trump's current attempts to reform the US tax system.

Dr Denise Cummins is a cognitive scientist and elected fellow of the Association for Psychological Science gives his view.
