Everything's power and problems. Until is isn't. Or is it?

Fairly good reader. The unique essays (as opposed to the excerpts from books), like What Is Enlightenment? and a few interviews, were the highlight of it.

Read for educational purposes. Book is translated from academic French and is almost 40 years old so more difficult to get through than most.

I really do love Foucault and his work was really transformative to me. As I have grown and learned more, I am defiantly now able to critique him a bit more, but even so, I really do connect to his ideas a lot.

Some of this was taken out of context for the anthology; I'd like to read some of the works these essays came from.
