Chomského kniha zásadných rozhovorov prináša čitateľovi najnovšie veľmi provokatívne, ale aj imaginatívne názory na najaktuálnejšie politické problémy doby. A tak, čitateľ môže sledovať vodopád jeho logicky vystavaných argumentov, postrehov, názorov a myšlienok. S Chomským možno nesúhlasiť, polemizovať, prieť sa, ale ignorovať jeho briskný intelekt, nepočúvať ho, neprieť sa s ním, znamená rezignáciu na kritické myslenie, zakrpatenie intelektuálneho diskurzu a nakoniec duchovnú stagnáciu.
