His complete uncollected writings, under the title "Dits et ecrits," were published in French in 1994 and in a three volume series from The New Press that brought the most important of these works--courses, articles, and interviews, many of them translated into English for the first time--to American readers. Now, Paul Rabinow and Nikolas Rose have collected the best pieces from the three-volume set into a one-volume anthology. "The Essential Foucault," which features a new and 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." -Publisher. ¶ CONTENTS: Introduction: Foucault today / Paul Rabinow and Nikolas Rose Foucault / [Maurice Florence] Life: experience and science Polemics, politics, and problematizations: an interview with Michel Foucault The ethics of the concern of the self as a practice of freedom What is enlightenment?
