Funny, I never really ran across him in those contexts...
I read Illich's _Deschooling Society_ mainly because of the title when I
was in high school. (I also ran into Paul Goodman's _Compulsory
Mis-education_ in high school. These were all books I found in thrift
stores. True story: my first exposure to Ayn Rand was via a used copy
of _The Virtue of Selfishness_ I found in a thrift shop...:) In
college, I discovered many of his other works. I don't recall all the
titles now.

He had a number of smoking things to say about life in general.:)
