Reassessing Foucault: Power, Medicine and the Body (Routledge Studies in the Social History of Medicine) - Hardcover
Synopsis
Though Foucault is now widely taught in universities, his writings are notoriously difficult. Reassessing Foucault critically examines the implications of his work for students and researchers in a wide range of areas in the social and human sciences.
Focusing on the social history of medicine, successive chapters deal with his historiographical, methodological and philosophical writings, his ideas about prisons, hospitals, madness and disease, and his thinking about the body.
The book also suggests ways in which Foucault's influence will continue to dominate cultural history and the social sciences.

Review
'Although it is of particular interest to historians of medicine there are some aspects which would be enormously useful to social scientists and medical theorists. It is a scholarly collection, well assembled and edited.' - Kenneth Jones, Queen Margaret College, Edinburgh, UK
