He shaped the ways we think today about such controversial issues as power, sexuality, madness and criminality. Johanna Oksala explores the conceptual tools that Foucault gave us for constructing new forms of thinking as well as for smashing old certainties. She offers a lucid account of him as a thinker whose persistent aim was to challenge the self-evidence and seeming inevitability of our current experiences, practices and institutions by showing their historical development and, therefore, contingency. Extracts are taken from the whole range of Foucault's writings - his books, essays, lectures and interviews - including the major works History of Madness,The Order of Things, Discipline and Punish and The History of Sexuality.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 198mmItem Length: 131mmItem Width: 8mmItem Weight: 104gAuthor: Johanna OksalaGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityBook Series: How to ReadRelease Year: 2007 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
