According to The New York Times, Noam Chomsky is arguably
the most important intellectual alive. But he isn t easy to read .
. . or at least he wasn t until these books came along. Made up of
intensively edited speeches and interviews, they offer something
not found anywhere else: pure Chomsky, with every dazzling idea and
penetrating insight intact, delivered in clear, accessible,
reader-friendly prose. Published as four short books in the famous
Real Story seriesWhat Uncle Sam Really Wants; The
Prosperous Few and the Restless Many; Secrets, Lies and
Democracy; and The Common Goodthey ve collectively sold
almost 600,000 copies. And they continue to sell year after year
after year because Chomsky s ideas become, if anything, more
relevant as time goes by. For example, twenty years ago he pointed
out that in 1970, about 90% of international capital was used for
trade and long-term investmentmore or less productive thingsand 10%
for speculation. By 1990, those figures had reversed. As we know,
speculation continued to increase exponentially. We re paying the
price now for not heeding him them."
