On Language Summary

On Language: Chomsky's Classic Works Language and Responsibility and by Noam Chomsky

An attractive new edition of two of Chomsky's most popular books on language - an ideal introduction to his pioneering work in modern linguistics. In Part I, Language and Responsibility, the legend discusses his political, moral and linguistic thinking via a series of interviews with French linguist Mitsou Ronat. In Part II, Reflections on Language, he explores the more general implications of his linguistic theories and the controversies among social scientists over fundamental questions of language.

On Language Reviews

Language and Responsibility is a well-organized, clearly written, and comprehensive introduction to Chomsky's thought. -The New York Times Book Review

Reflections on Language is profoundly satisfying and impressive. It is the clearest and most developed account of [Chomsky's] case. -Patrick Flanagan
