Critics Review

Praise for On Cuba:“A welcome and timely addition to any library by two formidable experts of international politics… . Chomsky and Prashad pack a multitude of facts and discourse you won’t find in the mainstream media into this excellent short book.”—Cuba Si

“A strong, left-leaning history of the U.S. government’s long-standing vendetta against Cuba.”—Kirkus Reviews

“Chomsky and Prashad describe Cuba as ‘a socialist model for the rest of the Third World.’ They might have left out the word ‘Third.’”—Roger Waters, co-founder of Pink Floyd, musician, and activist

“Noam Chomsky and Vijay Prashad have written a must-read indictment of the illegal and inhumane U.S. blockade of Cuba and an incisive examination of the socialist innovations of the Cuban Revolution.”—Brinda Karat, Politburo member of the Communist Party of India (Marxist)
