An eyeopening introduction to the timelessly relevant ideas of Noam Chomsky, this book is a penetrating, illusionshattering look at how things really work'Arguably the most important intellectual alive.' The New York TimesOffering something not found anywhere else, How the World Works is pure Chomsky, but tailored for those who are new to his work. The book is made up of meticulously edited speeches and interviews, and every dazzling idea and penetrating insight is kept intact and delivered in clear, accessible, readerfriendly prose.Originally published as a series of short worksWhat Uncle Sam Really Wants; The Prosperous Few and the Restless Many; Secrets, Lies and Democracy; and The Common Goodthese volumes together sold nearly 600,000 copies. Now collected into one comprehensive anthology, How the World Works reveals how Chomsky?s thenrevolutionary ideas have only become more relevant as time has gone by.From the concept that extreme wealth and democracy cannot exist sidebyside; to how the assumptions of mainstream media purposefully limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion; to the decline of unions and workers? rights thanks to corporations and their unconstrained quest for profit, Chomsky?s prescient theories of the futurenot only the future of the United States, but of the worldmake it very clear that our society is paying the price now for not heeding him then.
