"Though one may differ with this interpretation of U.S. history, or his views on the downside of the global media, much of what this soft-spoken prophet says has a middle-of-the-night ring of truth. The possibility that Chomsky glimpses something the rest of us fail to see is the ultimate explanation for his place in the current intellectual pantheon." -- The Globe and Mail
