For Reasons Of State by Noam Chomsky
Back in print after thirty years, this is a classic collection of Chomsky essays. It is particularly valuable as the first of Chomsky's works to fully demonstrate his power as a political thinker. In his biting critiques of American foreign policy, the collection showcases his unique ability to join broader philosophical concerns with the political realities of his time.
"Those who have waited eight years for Congress to do something about the bombing of Indochina must have a nagging suspicion that things may go on much as beforeThey will find little comfort in Chomsky's book." - The New York Review of Books "Here Chomsky displays those qualities which exemplify the finest traditions of intellectual responsibility and which have rightly earned for him the gratitude of those who have long regarded the Vietnam War as an abomination." - The New York Times Book Review
