Masters of Mankind: Essays and Lectures, 1969-2013
Autor Noam Chomskyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 noi 2015
In this collection of essays from 1969-2013, Noam Chomsky exposes the real nature of state power. With unrelenting logic, he holds the arguments of empire up to critical examination and shatters the myths of those who protect the power and privilege of the few against the interests and needs to the many.
Including essays on subjects such as:
* Human Intelligence and the Environment
* Terror, Justice and Self-Defence
* The Welfare-Warfare state
This is an indispensable compilation of searing insights into the state of our world.
Praise for Chomsky:

'Will there ever again be a public intellectual who commands the attention of so many across the planet?'New Statesman
'The west's most prominent critic of US imperialism . . . the closest thing in the English-speaking world to an intellectual superstar'Guardian

Recenzii
"There is no living political writer who has more radically changed how more people think in more parts of the world about political issues."
—Glenn Greenwald
"Chomsky is a global phenomenon . . . perhaps the most widely read voice on foreign policy on the planet."
—New York Times Book Review
"Considering that Chomsky’s relevance has only grown with time, and that his positions prove less radical and more prescient as years pass, the timing of his new book release, The Masters of Mankind, a retrospective of lectures and essays stretching from 1969 to 2013, is perfect... There is more than enough profound, powerful material in this collection to impress any readers unfamiliar with Chomsky’s intellectual agility."
—The Daily Beast
Praise for Hopes and Prospects:
"A revelation. . . . This is a book woven through with hope and awe at all the people who slip beyond imperial control and establish real democracy . . . a treasure-trove."
—The Independent
