"A brilliant book." — Vineeth Mathoor, Metapsychology

"Chomsky Notebook covers topics in a wide range of areas deeply influenced by the work of Noam Chomsky, including linguistics, psycholinguistics, biolinguistics, the philosophy of language, and the philosophy of the mind. Each essay has a level of generality that still achieves subtlety and depth in its discussion. Altogether they are provocative and provide reviews that are stimulating and thought provoking." — Robert May, University of California, Davis
