Item description from seller

The seminal one-volume collection of Noam Chomsky?s thought, encompassing his best writings on politics, philosophy, and media theory ?Noam Chomsky is one of the most significant challengers of unjust power and delusions; he goes against every assumption about American altruism and humanitarianism.? ?Edward Said For fifty 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 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. His scathing critiques of the U.S. wars in Vietnam, Central America, and the Middle East have been the intellectual inspiration for antiwar movements over nearly five decades. As the political landscape has changed over the course of Chomsky?s life, he has remained a steadfast voice on the left, never wavering in his convictions and always questioning entrenched power. The Essential Chomsky assembles the core of his most important writings, including excerpts from his most influential texts. Here is an unprecedented, comprehensive overview of Chomsky?s thought.…
