In a single volume, the seminal writings of the world's leading
philosopher, linguist, and critic, published to coincide with his
eightieth birthday.
For the past forty years Noam Chomsky's writings on politics and
language have established him as a preeminent public intellectual
and as one of the most original and wide-ranging political and
social critics of our time. Among the seminal figures in linguistic
theory over the past century, since the 1960s Chomsky has also
secured a place as perhaps the leading dissident voice in the
United States.
Chomsky's many bestselling works--including "Manufacturing Consent,
Hegemony or Survival, Understanding Power," and "Failed
States"--have served as essential touchstones for dissidents,
activists, scholars, and concerned citizens on subjects ranging
from the media to human rights to intellectual freedom. In
particular, Chomsky's scathing critiques of the U.S. wars in
Vietnam, Central America, and the Middle East have furnished a
widely accepted intellectual inspiration for antiwar movements over
nearly four decades.
"The Essential Chomsky" assembles the core of his most important
writings, including excerpts from his most influential texts over
the past forty years. Here is an unprecedented, comprehensive
overview of Chomsky's thought.
