The answer: Everybody! Even *you*. Read this book and find out why a life devoid of philosophy is unguided and hazardous.
This is a good collection of philosophical essays by Ayn Rand. Essays 1-7, 10, and 14-18 are good for an introduction to Rand's works; the remaining essays critique other philosophers (e.g. Kant, Rawls, Skinner, etc) and are better after one is accustomed to Objectivism (Rand's philosophy). If her statements and philosophy seem ungrounded (or just crazy), I suggest reading another of her books _The Virtue of Selfishness_, a great introduction to the ethics of Objectivist.
