Michel Foucault: A Research Companion – forthcoming in November 2015 from Sverre Raffnsøe, Morten S Thaning, Marius Gudmand-Hoyer.
Michel Foucault continues to be hugely influential. His diagnoses challenge us to rethink crucial phenomena such as madness, discipline, the human sciences, the state, neoliberalism, sexuality and subject formation. Based on his work in its entirety, and with special emphasis on his many recently published lecture series, this book provides an updated, comprehensive and original account of his thought. By reading Foucault as a philosopher, it offers an extensive systematic assessment and discussion of his unique conception of philosophical practice and brings a unifying trajectory in his work to light.
Along with several other people I provided an endorsement for the cover. At the moment only an expensive hardback and e-book is listed – given the usefulness of this as a resource for students, I really hope it’s available in more affordable form soon.
