This completely new edition of The Cambridge Companion to Chomsky
surveys Chomsky's contributions to the science of language, to
socioeconomic-political analysis and criticism, and to the study of
the human mind. The first section focuses on the aims of Chomsky's
recent 'biological-minimalist' turn in the science of language, and
shows how Chomsky's view of the nature of language and its
introduction to the human species has recently developed. The
second section focuses on Chomsky's view of the mind and its parts
- and how to study them. Finally, the third section examines some
of Chomsky's many contributions to socio-political history and
critique. This new edition examines Chomsky's views on a wide range
of issues, from his views of the lexicon, language's evolution, and
the study of mind to the status of capitalism and the
Palestine-Israel conflict. It will be essential reading for anyone
with an interest in Chomsky's ideas.
