About the AuthorNoam Chomsky was born in Philadelphia in 1928. Since 1955, he's taught at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he became a full professor at the age of 32. A major figure in twentieth-century linguistics, chomsky has also written many books on comtemporary issues. His political talks ahve been heard, typically by standing-room only audiences, all over the country and the globe, and he's received countless honors and awards.
In a saner world, his tireless efforts to promote justice would have long since won him the Nobel peace prize, but the commitee keeps giving it to people like Henry Kissinger. What Our Readers Are SayingBe the first to add a comment for a chance to win!Product Details
