    Taylor and Francis 2013; US$ 21.95

    Routledge 1976; US$ 48.95

    Towards the middle of the eighteenth century, Pomme treated and cured a hysteric by making her take ?baths, ten or twelve hours a day, for ten whole months?.

  • History of Madnessby Michel Foucault

    Taylor and Francis 2006; US$ 26.95

    When it was first published in France in 1961 as Folie et Déraison: Histoire de la Folie à l'âge Classique , few had heard of a thirty-four year old philosopher by the name of Michel Foucault. By the time an abridged English edition was published in 1967 as Madness and Civilization , Michel Foucault had shaken the intellectual world. This translation... more...

  • The Order of Thingsby Michel Foucault

    Taylor and Francis 2012; US$ 25.49

    When one defines "order" as a sorting of priorities, it becomes beautifully clear as to what Foucault is doing here. With virtuoso showmanship, he weaves an intensely complex history of thought. He dips into literature, art, economics and even biology in The Order of Things , possibly one of the most significant, yet most overlooked, works of the... more...

    Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group 2012; US$ 14.00

    In this sequel to The History of Sexuality, Volume I: An Introduction, the brilliantly original French thinker who died in 1984 gives an analysis of how the ancient Greeks perceived sexuality. Throughout The Uses of Pleasure Foucault analyzes an irresistible array of ancient Greek texts on eroticism as he tries to answer basic questions: How in the... more...

  • Discipline & Punishby Michel Foucault

    Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group 2012; US$ 16.95

    In this brilliant work, the most influential philosopher since Sartre suggests that such vaunted reforms as the abolition of torture and the emergence of the modern penitentiary have merely shifted the focus of punishment from the prisoner's body to his soul. more...
