Publisher's Note
Madness, sexuality, power, knowledge-are these facts of life or simply parts of speech? In a series of works of astonishing brilliance, historian Michel Foucault excavated the hidden assumptions that govern the way we live and the way we think. The Archaeology of Knowledge 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.

Industry Reviews
"Next to Sartre's 'Search for a Method' and in direct opposition to it, Foucault's work is the most noteworthy effort at a theory of history in the last 50 years....While Sartre shows the human intention behind the most alienated institution, Foucault reveals anonymity in the most intimate, personal expression of the individual. At bottom, the import of his 'archaeology' is to radically deny the transcendental nature of reason."
Library Journal - Mark Poster
