"A subtle and scrupulous look at some of the most interesting work done in our time on language and mind." —George Steiner, The New York Times Book Review
"The first time Chomsky has joined his linguistic and political writings under one cover." —America
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.
