Description
'Imaginative, illuminating and innovative' The New York Times Book Review
Thegrisly spectacle of public executions and torture of centuries ago hasbeen replaced by the penal system in western society - but has anythingreally changed?
In his revolutionary work on control and power relationsin our public institutions, Michel Foucault argues that the developmentof prisons, police organizations and legal hierarchies has merelychanged the focus of domination from our bodies to our souls. Evenschools, factories, barracks and hospitals, in which an individual'stime is controlled hour by hour, are part of a disciplinary society.
'Foucault's genius is called forth into the eloquent clarity of his passions ... his best book' Washington Post
