A review by aliilman
The Essential Chomsky by Noam Chomsky
4.0
In the Essential Chomsky, we find some of the best works of Noam Chomsky. Some are politically thought-provoking, some are intellectual.
Politically, a common theme is Chomsky’s writings on ‘Murica’s foreign policy, such as ‘Murica’s relationship with Israel, atrocities ‘Murica had committed in Vietnam and Nicaragua to name a few, ‘Murica’s lust for Middle East’s rich natural resources. The penultimate chapter of the book is fittingly ‘Murica’s involvement in the war of terror.
Apart from politics, there are writings on linguistics, such as how the brain and the mind work when it comes to learning and using a language. One would have to read such topic slowly in order to appreciate the curiosity that can be felt behind the writings.
The philosopher in me thoroughly enjoyed reading this.
