Books by Michel Foucault

Explores theory, criticism and psychology through the texts of Raymond Roussel, one of the fathers of experimental writing, whose work has been celebrated by the likes of Cocteau, Duchamp, Breton, Robbe Grillet, Gide, and Giacometti. This work includes an introduction, chronology and bibliography to Foucault's work.

Challenging entrenched views of madness and reason, this work introduces many of the radical themes about the nature of power and social exclusion. It focuses on scientific and medical analyses of madness, as well as on the philosophical and cultural values attached to the mad.

Possibly one off the most significant yet most overlooked works of the twentieth century, it was The Order of Things that established Foucault's reputation as an intellectual giant.

This collection of interviews and writings focuses on the cultural vision that characterized Foucault's later work. He assesses truth, history, the social self from a philosophical and social science perspective and his essays develop into a dialogue with Kant, Marx, Nietzche, Freud and Weber.
