Unlike <em>9/11, Interventions</em> is a writerly work-a series of more than thirty tightly argued essays aimed at various aspects of US power and politics in the post-9/11 world. While critical of US military interventions around the globe, each piece in the book is in itself an intellectual intervention aimed at raising public ire about the consequences of US use of power at home and abroad. </p> <p> <em>Interventions</em>' subjects span from 9/11 and the Iraq war to Social Security and Intelligent Design, South America and Asia, the Israeli occupation of Palestine and the election of Hamas, Hurricane Katrina, and the US concept of "just war." </p> <p>According to <em>BusinessWeek,</em> "With relentless logic, Chomsky bids us to listen closely to what our leaders tell us-and to discern what they are leaving out. . . . Agree with him or not, we lose out by not listening." Chomsky's <em>Interventions</em> delivers what readers want: an accessible set of skeleton keys for opening up a wide range of global issues dominating today's political landscape. </p> <p> <strong>Noam Chomsky</strong> is the critically acclaimed author of many books, including <em>Hegemony or Survival, Imperial Ambitions, Failed States, Manufacturing Consent,</em> and <em>Media Control.</em></p> 2142572 1 5 2007 Interventions (City Lights Open Media) total:116|5:35|4:53|3:27|2:1|1:0| 116 470 204 11 62674 0872864839 9780872864832 108 10 Interventions (City Lights Open Media) 4.05 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170605287m/62674.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/62674.Interventions 4 1 false Mon Oct 27 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Mon Oct 13 11:35:07 -0700 2008 Mon Oct 27 10:27:39 -0700 2008 more...]]> 62674 0872864839 9780872864832 108 10 Interventions (City Lights Open Media) 4.05 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170605287m/62674.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/62674.Interventions 5 1 false Tue Aug 21 12:03:31 -0700 2007 Tue Aug 21 12:04:02 -0700 2007 62674 0872864839 9780872864832 108 10 Interventions (City Lights Open Media) 4.05 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170605287m/62674.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/62674.Interventions 4 0 false Tue Jun 10 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Wed Jun 04 11:18:53 -0700 2008 Tue Jun 10 17:25:54 -0700 2008 Interventions is a set of editorials written by Noam Chomsky for the New York Times syndication service.
