Noam Chomsky applies a rational, scientific approach to
disciplines as diverse as linguistics, ethics, and politics. His
best-known innovations involve a groundbreaking theory of
generative grammar, the revolution it initiated in cognitive
science, and a radical encounter with political theory and
practice.
In "Chomsky Notebook," Cedric Boeckx and Norbert Hornstein
tackle the evolution of Chomsky's linguistic theory. Akeel Bilgrami
revisits Chomsky's work on freedom and truth, and Pierre Jacob
analyzes his naturalism. Chomsky's own contributions include an
interview with Jean Bricmont and an essay each on Edward Said and
the natural world. Altogether, these works reveal the penetrating
insight of a remarkable intellectual whose thought extends into a
number of fields within and outside of academia. For the
uninitiated reader and longtime fan, this anthology attests to the
power of Chomsky's rationalism and the dexterity of his critical
investigations.
