Language and politics

"A chronological collection of over fifty interviews conducted with Noam Chomsky beginning with his 1968 discussion of the U.S. war on Vietnam and ending soon after the appearance of his best-selling book, 9-11, and the start of America's "War on Terror."" "The interviews add a personal dimension to the full breadth of Chomsky's written canon-equally covering his analysis in linguistics, philosophy, and politics. The discussions of the ideas and conclusions of Plato, Galileo, Descartes, Marx, Rocker, Freud, Skinner and Keynes, among others, are balanced with insightful principled critiques of the small cadre of international madmen who attempt to wrestle freedom and power away from us."--BOOK JACKET.
