Language and Mind

Chomsky is arguably the most important intellectual alive.
-- New York Times

One of the most gifted thinkers of our time, Noam Chomsky has revolutionized our understanding of language, its use and its acquisition. Now, Language & Mind brings Chomsky into your classroom, where he takes your students on a guided tour through his epoch-making ideas.

The theories of Noam Chomsky propose that the human brain is endowed with an innate "language faculty" and that part of this biological endowment is a set of principles common to all languages--otherwise known as the "theory of Universal Grammar."

From Aristotle to Gallileo to Descartes to Hume--to the cognitive revolution of the 1950s and the most recent work in clinical and developmental psychology--Chomsky charts the history of philisophical inquiry in the nature of Language & Mind.

Never before or again will Noam Chomsky make such a presentation available on video. A foundational and essential presentation for curricula in linguistics, psychology, or philosophy, this provocative presentation will inspire your students to discuss, debate, and rethink the nature of Language & Mind.
