View submission: Who comes close to Chomsky today?
Chomskys strength steems from being a cognitive scienctist, and not just any but the most prominent. Linguistics, anthropology, Psychology, neuroscience, artificial Intelligence, Philosophy. I would say that no one is as unique as Prof Chomsky and has contributed so much to several Scientific areas.
On a sidenote ; this is also the reason why i hate to see how this subredit uses his name for unrelated topics and comments being made by members who haven't even read any of the literature. Daily posts by people shocked by "breaking news". But had they at least read Manufacturing consent, well i would expect a constructive discussions in the comment section.
Ps if anyone would like to get one of his books, i would love to share an ebook version for free.

I'd love an ebook 🙂 I've got manufacturing consent and a couple of his old linguistics (specifically syntax I think) works, but have read very little of his more recent political work.
