Este libro aborda los aspectos fundamentales que definen nuestra condición humana: la exclusiva capacidad para el lenguaje, la naturaleza y los límites de la mente humana y las posibilidades del bien común en la sociedad y la política. Utilizando un lenguaje preciso y exento de tecnicismos, Chomsky examina en profundidad cincuenta años de desarrollo científico en el estudio del lenguaje, esbozando cómo su propia obra ha tenido repercusiones en la concepción de los orígenes de éste, la estrecha relación entre lenguaje y pensamiento y su eventual base biológica, pasando del ámbito del lenguaje y de la mente al de la sociedad y la política.
