No one can uncover the hidden truths of modern geopolitics more convincingly than Noam Chomsky. "How the World Works" is a volume that brings together four of his most successful and interesting books.

"What Uncle Sam Really Wants" focuses on US foreign policy.

In "The Few Who Prosper and the Many Who Suffer," Chomsky analyzes the modern global economy, the "economic miracles" of the Third World, and the roots of racism.

"Secrets, Lies, and Democracy" deals with the CIA, religious fundamentalism, and global inequalities. Finally, "The Common Good" addresses issues of equality, freedom, the media, and the myth surrounding Third World debt.

Published as part of the Real Story book series, these four books have sold over 600,000 copies in total, proving their resilience over time and confirming the timeless nature of the thinking of this great thinker of our time.
