Noam Chomsky
Noam Chomsky is one of the leading North American intellectuals and scholars. A MIT Professor of Linguistics and long-time activist, prolific writer and popular lecturer, Chomsky speaks widely on a range of social and political issues, both national and international.

He is one of the most important contemporary linguists and had a big influence on the developments of his discipline.
