Rezensionen
"When intellectual histories of the twentieth century are written,Noam Chomsky will surely be acknowledged as one of its majorfigures. Given his enormous influence, it is imperative thatChomsky's ideas be scrutinized, and I can't think of a better arenathan this book, in which Chomsky and his critics are given theelbow room to work out their disagreements with the subtlety anddepth that they deserve." Steven Pinker, MIT, and author of TheLanguage Instinct

"More than forty years ago, Noam Chomsky began a revolution inthe way that philosophers think about the mind and about language.The essays in this fine volume make it clear that the Chomskianrevolution is still very much underway and that we are far fromagreement on the implications of Chomsky's work. Thesecutting-edge essays - and Chomsky's characteristicallyinsightful replies - are full of fresh insights and acutearguments. They are essential reading for anyone interested in theextraordinary impact Chomsky has had on philosophy." StephenStich, Rutgers University
