Did Chomsky Overthrow Behaviorism?

I came to language of, just in my autobiography, really from reading a long form article in the Sunday, New York Times magazine.

I think it was that article plus books around the home and exposure to cognitive psychology in college and then university,. It just seemed tremendously exciting that you could actually study the human mind scientifically. Yeah. You were probably the closest.
