Reviews and Quotes

". . . reading Chomsky today is sobering and instructive . . . He is right to demand that officials in Washington devote themselves more zealously to strengthening international institutions, curbing arms flows and advancing human rights." --Samantha Power, New York Times Book Review

". . . bound to be met with skepticism . . . Chomsky builds his arguments carefully, substantiates claims with appropriate documentation and answers expected counterclaims" --Publishers Weekly

"Chomsky offers a cautionary look at where we may be headed as a nation and the growing threats to world peace and personal freedom." --Booklist

"If, for reasons of chance, or circumstance (or sloth), you have to pick just one book on the subject of the American Empire, I'd say pick this one. It's the Full Monty. It's Chomsky at his best. Hegemony or Survival is necessary reading." --Arundhati Roy
