T’s Reviews > Noam Chomsky: A Life of Dissent > Status Update

Decent intellectual biography the American Left's high priest. Not much of this will be new if you're lame enough to have read or listened to a lot of Chomsky, but it's interesting nonetheless. Also, it's crazy to learn how intellectually gifted Chomsky was from such a young age. At 10 he wrote about the Spanish civil war, at 12 he read his dad's PhD in Hebrew, and by 25 he'd revolutionised the field of linguistics!
