ESSENTIAL CHOMSKY, THE, Noam Chomsky

'It is the responsibility of intellectuals to speak the truth and to expose lies.' This powerful collection of Chomsky's writing, arranged chronologically from 1959 to 2006, brings together essays, lectures and whole-chapter extracts demonstrating the core themes of his critical and academic work, including US foreign policy and interventionism, propaganda and the media, and the theory of language. Shorter works on Watergate, Israel and 9/11 particularly resonate with our times.
