This completely new edition of The Cambridge Companion to Chomsky
surveys Chomsky's contributions to the science of language, to
socioeconomic-political analysis and criticism, and to the study of
the human mind. The first section focuses on the aims of Chomsky's
recent 'biological-minimalist' turn in the science of language, and
shows how Chomsky's view of the nature of language and its
introduction to the human species has recently developed. The second
section focuses on Chomsky's view of the mind and its parts - and how
to study them. Finally, the third section examines some of Chomsky's
many contributions to socio-political history and critique. This new
edition examines Chomsky's views on a wide range of issues, from his
views of the lexicon, language's evolution, and the study of mind to
the status of capitalism and the Palestine-Israel conflict. It will be
essential reading for anyone with an interest in Chomsky's ideas.
