Open LibraryAbout this book
At a time when the United States exacts a greater and greater power over the rest of the world, America's leading voice of dissent needs to be heard more than ever. In over thirty timely, accessible and urgent essays, Chomsky cogently examines the burning issues of our post-9/11 world, covering the invasion and occupation of Iraq, the Bush presidency and the Israeli invasion of Lebanon. This is an essential collection, from a vital and authoritative perspective.

Eduardo Galeano
3 September 1940 – 13 April 2015
Eduardo Galeano fue un periodista, escritor y novelista uruguayo. Sus obras más conocidas son *Memoria del fuego* (1986) y *Las venas abiertas de América Latina* (1971), traducidas a veinte idiomas y que trascienden los géneros ortodoxos: combinan ficción, periodismo, análisis político e historia. El propio autor proclamó su obsesión como escritor diciendo: "Soy un escritor obsesionado con recordar, con recordar el pasado de América sobre todo y sobre todo el de América Latina, tierra íntima condenada a la amnesia". Galeano recibió el Premio Internacional de Derechos Humanos de Global Exchange (2006) y el Premio Stig Dagerman (2010).
