On Western Terrorism by Noam Chomsky
A controversial and provocative new intervention from the world's greatest dissident intellectual.
'Chomsky's maturity has endowed him wisdom that acts as a complement to his astonishing command over the specifics of the whole spectrum of political concernsThis substantive authoritativeness set him apart long ago as our foremost intellectual and most beloved commentator on the passing scene of world events, but now he has also become a 'wise elder,' and whose views of the world deserves the greatest respect from all of us.' -- Richard Falk, Foreign Policy Journal
'It is absolutely essential reading for anyone wishing to understand the current context of contemporary geo-politics by revealing the often-hidden histories that have given rise to it, as well as highlighting the pressing issues facing the world which are usually ignored going forward.' -- Joe Turnbull, inkyneedles.com
'It makes for enlightening, provocative and revealing reading and it's a welcome antidote to the plethora of books and films on the "horrors" of communism.' -- John Green, Morning Star
