Publisher's Synopsis
What is terrorism? And how can we reduced the likeliehood of such crimes, whether they are against us, or against someone else? With his vintage flair, penetrating analysis and ironic wit, Chomsky, in perhaps his most anticipated lecture ever - delivered a month after 9/11 - and his first public statement since the event, makes sense of a world apparently gone mad. We certainly want to reduce the level of terror...there is one way to do that...stop participating in it' - Noam Chomsky'
