Riassunto

In such seminal works as Madness and Civilization, Discipline and Punish, andThe History of Sexuality, the late philosopher Michel Foucault explored what our politics, our sexuality, our societal conventions, and our changing notions of truth told us about ourselves. In the process, Foucault garnered a reputation as one of the preeminent philosophers of the latter half of the twentieth century, and has served as a primary influence on successive generations of philosophers and cultural critics. WithA Foucault Primer, Alec McHoul and Wendy Grace bring Foucault's work into focus for the uninitiated.
