Synopsis
Noam Chomsky, a professor of linguistics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has achieved world renown as a linguist and political activist. This book brings together his political and linguistic analysis. In this series of talks originally given in memory of Bertrand Russell in 1971, Chomsky applies empirical principles of human understanding to then-current issues, including the war in Indochina, the Cold War, the Cuban Missile Crisis and Richard Nixon's foreign policies.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: Good. First Fontana Paperback Edition. A foundational work by renowned linguist and political activist Noam Chomsky, "Problems of Knowledge and Freedom" delves into complex questions surrounding human nature, innate knowledge, ethical thought, and their implications for social and political theory. This 1972 Fontana edition represents the first paperback appearance of the work, making it an accessible and significant piece for collectors and students of Chomsky's thought. In this volume, Chomsky explores the tension between human creativity and societal constraints, advocating for a critical examination of established power structures and the pursuit of genuine intellectual and political freedom. This copy is in Good condition, reflecting its age but remaining a solid reading or reference copy. Bound in its original paperback covers, the book shows expected wear for a vintage paperback.
