About the author

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.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 June 2013If writing about music is like dancing about architecture, then writing about language is like living in that architecture. Prof. Chomsky can be exasperatingly controversial (if right just often enough) but his opinions and indeed theories of language development are seminal. This is the work. A must for those who try to live a life of ideas.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 February 2009Essential reading for any serious student of linguistics. Chomsky's views may not be as popular today, but nevertheless, his theories have had far-reaching effect, especially in the educational field.
