New York, NY, U.S.A.: Pantheon Books/Dorset Press 245 pages including index. Copyright date 1972 but book appears to have been printed many years later. In a series of works of astonishing brilliance, author has excavated the hidden assumptions that govern the way we live and way we think. Begins at the level of "things said" and moves quickly to illuminate the connections between knowledge, language, and action in a style at once profound and personal. A summing up of Foucault's own methodological assumptions, this book is also a first step toward a genealogy of the way we live now. Challengin, at times infuriating, it is an absolutely indispensable guide to one of the most innovative thinkers now writing. Small bit of staining inside front panel of dust jacket is only visible when dust jacket removed from book. Otherwise, dust jacket lightly to moderately worn with no tears. Contents tight, square and unmarked.. Hard Cover. Fine/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
