1.		Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media from Pantheon Price: $12.89 Customer Review: Hey folks, If you're out there considering buying this book, please know that it might prove to be one of the most important books you'll ever read.

2.		Failed States: The Abuse of Power and the Assault on Democracy from Holt Paperbacks Price: $10.20 Customer Review: This is the first time I have felt compelled to write a review. Perhaps I need to read earlier books, but Failed States seems extremely biased, lacking focus, incoherent, and having a weak structure. I don't necessarily disagree with the conclusions in it, but I find the presentation of his ideas... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

3.		Hegemony or Survival : America's Quest for Global Dominance (The American Empire Project) (The American Empire Project) Customer Review: This is a very insightful, biased, anti-American, and perhaps slightly even an anti-humanity piece of work. This book is full of events Chomsky claims US did to sabotage and destroy foreign countries. Chomsky offers insights into US's foreign policies and what it has done to accomplish "global... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

4.		The Essential Chomsky from New Press Price: $13.57 Customer Review: The "Chomskian Worldview" has to do, in part, with the ANARCHIC view that 1. POWER is ALWAYS illegitimate until, 2. it has justified its existence. 3. The "burden of proof," i.e., proving its legitimacy, is on POWER, NOT upon those in its thrall. Therefore, the U.S./Israeli power alliance agenda is... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

5.		Media Control, Second Edition: The Spectacular Achievements of Propaganda (Open Media) from Open Media Price: $9.95 Customer Review: This short book is a good introduction to the notion of media control and the manufacturing of consent. Given its length, however, it necessarily lacks some depth and does not develop its arguments as empirically or logically as some might prefer. This book might best suit those who prefer a brief... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

6.		Chomsky on Anarchism from AK Press Price: $11.53 Customer Review: This book is a great introduction to both Noam Chomsky and anarchism, both in terms of its readability and its broad scope. Here one gets a taste of both anarchist theory and practice(alas, though, only a taste), as well as an examination of the celebrated peak of anarchism's influence on world... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

7.		The Chomsky-Foucault Debate: On Human Nature from New Press Price: $10.17 Customer Review: Regarding the so-called "power conspiracy" theories--which Chomsky has refuted several times, both in print and in lectures--proponents of those theories argue not, e.g., that there are meetings between the Board of Directors of Exxon-Mobil and their major stockholders--of which there... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

8.		The Uses of Haiti (3rd Edition) from Common Courage Press Price: $16.47 Customer Review: I am a Haitian, lived in Haiti until I came to the States at 28. I went back to visit the graves of my ancestors a few months before the departure of the monster Aristide. Aristide's regime and Duvalier's years in power did that poor country in. I had great hopes when Aristide came to power and felt... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

9.		Necessary Illusions: Thought Control in Democratic Societies from South End Press Price: $14.96 Customer Review: Unlike the unfortunate trend I see on the left to review and condemn books by the likes of Coulter etc with out reading them, I will begin by stating that I could not read this whole book. Bad facts,outright lies (someone please send him to southeast Asia to speak with some lucky peasants who... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

10.		What We Say Goes: Conversations on U.S. Power in a Changing World from Metropolitan Books Price: $10.20 Customer Review: Chomsky consistently finds documents and articles that the rest of us have missed. Like all his books, this is full of fascinating revelations. His title comes from a speech by George Bush senior in 1991, when he said that the main principle of his new world order was, `what we say goes'.
