His complete uncollected writings, under the title <em>Dits et écrits</em>, were published in French in 1994; this was followed by a three-volume series from The New Press that brought the most important of these works--courses, articles, and personal letters, many of them translated into English for the first time--to American readers. Here, the renowned Foucault scholars Paul Rabinow and Nikolas Rose have collected the best pieces from the three-volume set into a one-volume anthology in which Foucault's dazzling intellect and gift for language are on full display.</p> <p><em>The Essential Foucault</em>, which features a provocative introduction by Rabinow and Rose, is certain to become the standard text for all those interested in a comprehensive overview of Foucault's thought.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A rare opportunity to see how a great and original mind produces its work as well as itself at the same time ... Foucault's work ... leaves no reader untouched or unchanged.<br>--Edward Said, <i>The New York Times Book Review</i> <p/>What shines through in these pieces is [Foucault's] remarkable liveliness of response, the extravagance of his curiosity, the originality and assurance of his formulations.<br>--Geoffrey Galt Harpham, <i>The Boston Book Review</i><br><br>
