Taming the Rascal Multitude is a judicious selection of essays and interviews from Z Magazine from 1997 to 2014. In each, Chomsky takes up some question of the moment and situates what followed even without having known what would follow. They explicate what preceded the current era and provide a how-to for successfully comprehending social events and relations. They are a pleasure to read, much like the pleasure of watching a great athlete or performer, but they also edify. They educate.  Reading Chomsky is about understanding how society works, how people relate to society and social trends, and, beyond the specifics, how to approach events, relations, occurrences, and patterns in a way that reveals their inner meanings and their outer connections and implications. It is like reading the best you can get about topic after topic, and, more, it is like watching a master craftsperson in a discipline that ought to be all of ours understanding the world to change it.

He may be the most widely read American voice on foreign policy on the planet.” —New York Times Book Review “For anyone wanting to find out more about the world we live in . . . there is one simple answer: read Noam Chomsky.” —New Statesman “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.” —Businessweek “Chomsky remains the thinker who shaped a generation, a beacon of hope in the darkest of times.” —Sarah Jaffe, author of Necessary Trouble: Americans in Revolt “Noam Chomsky is the world’s most humane, philosophically sophisticated, and knowledgeable public intellectual." —Richard Falk, professor of international law emeritus, Princeton University Buy Now About the Contributors Noam Chomsky is a laureate professor at the University of Arizona and professor emeritus in the MIT Department of Linguistics and Philosophy.
