Originally published as three short books, Chronicles of Dissent, Keep the Rubble in Line and Class Warfare, by independent publisher Common Courage Press in the USA, this new omnibus edition forms a vital and accessible overview of Noam Chomsky's political thought.
In sixteen extended talks with David Barsamian, Noam Chomsky ranges across world history, from Columbus to the Gulf War, returning always to the key elements of political ideas, including: the perversion of language by propaganda; the pervasiveness of American imperialist designs; the endemic complicity in this of much of the media and intelligentsia; and the "war on drugs" as a war on poor people.
Widely recognized as one of the most original and important thinkers of our age, Chomsky's trenchant analysis of current events is a breath of fresh air in a world more and more polluted by mainstream media.
