This is a terrific introduction to Chomsky’s political thought, it’s basically transcripts of question and answer sessions he gave throughout the late 80’s to mid 90’s, so it one of his more accessable reads because he’s just talking. The footnotes are extensive and don’t actually appear in the book. They can be accessed at http://www.understandingpower.com/ and can be purchased for an additional charge.

Brilliant explanations, clear prose.

my first attempt at reading Chomsky. This volume can work as a great primer into the political thought of Chomsky. Highly recommended.
