ABOUT THE BOOK:

An indispensable set of interviews on foreign and domestic issues with the bestselling author of Hegemony or Survival, “America’s most useful citizen.”
The Boston Globe

In this collection of conversations with his longtime interlocutor David Barsamian, Noam Chomsky explores the occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan, the rise of China, and the growing power of the left in Latin America. These conversations confirm that Chomsky is an unparalleled resource for anyone seeking to understand our world today.

PRAISE:

“Chomsky criticizes those journalists and public intellectuals who, in reporting and commenting on events, do not question the assumptions under which the country acts and have framed the debate so that only the details are fodder for discussion. Chomsky’s points are challenging.”

Library Journal
