Avram Noam Chomsky (/ˈnoʊm ˈtʃɒmski/; born December 7, 1928) is an American linguist, philosopher, cognitive scientist, historian, logician, social critic, and political activist. Sometimes described as "the father of modern linguistics", Chomsky is also a major figure in analytic philosophy, and one of the founders of the field of cognitive science. He has spent more than half a century at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he is Institute Professor Emeritus, and is the author of over 100 books on topics such as linguistics, war, politics, and mass media. Ideologically, he aligns with anarcho-syndicalism and libertarian socialism.

The book’s condition was very clean and great.
I read this book in Korean version first, but wanted to re-read in English version.
It’s very on point. Love all the books from Chomsky.

Kids don't read as much as they used to. A sad fact every teacher must cope with. In the interest of time, and attention paid, this video can make, in many cases, a better impact.

4.0 out of 5 stars Same good stuff
Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2003
I would have given this book 5 stars but I was hoping for a little more direct discussion on Afghanistan and Iraq. Still a great book. Anyone who thinks this book was a "rushed" effort to capitalize on current events does not know Chomsky and also dosen't realize that he didn't really write the book. The book is a collection of lectures and discussions that he has given in the past two years. Chomsky does not waste his time making fun of all of his detractors like so many other liberal and conservative writers. He is not out to write the next NY Times best seller. Let the Ann Coulters and Al Frankens of the world have their spats. Meanwhile, Chomsky is constantly reading and writing and talking and putting out little books whose conclusions are grounded in extensive research and common sense. Do you really care about the people who died on September 11th?? Or was it just so spectacularly horrible that you can't see or think straight anymore? Do you honestly want terrorism to stop?? If so then start reading this book. All the baggage screenings, roaming warrants and "precision" bombing of poor, thirld world countries is not going to stop terrorism. The first step that Americans need to take to stop terrorism is to stop sponsoring it all over the world. Read Chomsky and then start looking things up on your own. It's all there for you to find...Colombia, Nicaragua, Palestine, Turkey, Korea, Bosnia, Russia, Cuba, Vietnam (I'll leave US atrocities in Japan off the list since we were "at war"). Remember that evil begets evil.
What it really boils down to though is this question: Do you value human life? Based on the current state of things in the world today I would venture to say that most Americans don't. We value our own lives, but are not too concerned about the lives' of others. Or maybe we only care about HOW people die. Are we angered more when we see a human instantly vaporized in a fiery explosion than slowly starve to death of hunger? Does it sadden us more to see a mother wail in English over the death of her son than a mother grieving in Arabic or Spanish?
If you don't care that much about other people dying in the world that's OK with me. We all have our own priorities and struggles. Just as long as you realize that hundreds of people all over the world die every day so that we can live the way we do in this country. If that dosen't bother you then that's also fine. It actually doesn't bother me too much. I love living the way we do. It's tons of fun. Just don't go around waving the American flag and thinking that people sit around waiting to blow themselves up because they are so angry that we have strip clubs, fast food, SUV's and are the "brightest beacon of freedom in the world." If you believe that then you are just as fanatical as the a@#holes that committed the crimes of September 11th.

5.0 out of 5 stars Definitely Worth Reading
Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2014
I really loved this book. It was clear, concise and straight to the point; definitely a great primer for more in depth later reading. The book is thought provoking and quickly advises you on how much we are being lied to by the government and its media cronies. This is my first book that I have read by the author, though I have heard of him through the years, I would say this is an excellent first book for one who is newly acquainted with him. Admittedly, I am excited about reading more of his works.

3.0 out of 5 stars A psychic helps the FBI and the Victims Go to the Light -
Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2003
If you have ever wondered about people who die quickly - if they "go to the light" or wait around as ghosts for a while, and how we can help them transition, you may want to read Tiffany Snow's Psychic Gifts in the Christian Life - Tools to Connect. She has a personal experience in her book about 9-11, and how she ended up out-of-body to help 5 people on the plane transition successfully. She explains that victims who die quickly are often in shock, and don't really know that they are dead - they think "the angel and relatives that show up to escort them, are the dream, and not the reality." During her time of "reliving and relieving" the last few moments before impact with each of the five, she was able to see the terrorists, what they were wearing and doing, etc, and the next day sent sketches and information to the FBI...and their unexpected, positive response. Much good is in this book about "the other side," and I just wanted to pass on the info, it was interesting to me, and comforting, and especially for the victim's families, might fill in a few of the gaps.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Little More Needed
Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2003
I have to admit that I both agreed with the authors overall stance of the war and many of his views on how America should use its power in the world. I also tend to fall a little left of the mainstream so with all these factors I should have loved this book - right? Well to my amazement I did not love the book and can just barley say with a straight face that I enjoyed it. First off this was not a well thought out book but a bunch of second run speeches and some interviews. I would image that the editor spent more time putting the bits together then the author did in even thinking about what should go in the book. Overall it just came off to me as a money grab.
Again I agreed with a number of the points, or the points that were not way over the top. What I found was that the author would make some well thought out comments and then at the end of the section trough in some kind of off the deep end comment that made me want to discount all the valid points. These are the type of comments that are probably not that well thought out that give this author a less then stellar name. Overall the book was average and the most lasting impression it left with me is that I probably will not buy another one of his works.

An incisive strike to the dark side of America (which is too often swept under the rug) - The book is essentially a series of transcripts, it is very brief, very readable, and dare I say it, very entertaining (despite some very depressing content). Worth reading cover to cover in one or two sittings!
