Summary

Engaging and incisive, Chomsky on Democracy and Education is the first collection of writings, talks, and interviews, some previously unpublished, of his views on language, power, policy, and method in education.

Review

Though one may differ with this interpretation of U.S. history, or his views on the downside of the global media, much of what this soft-spoken prophet says has a middle-of-the-night ring of truth. The possibility that Chomsky glimpses something the rest of us fail to see is the ultimate explanation for his place in the current intellectual pantheon.
