Michel Foucault is recognized as one of the twentieth century'smost influential thinkers, however the authors in this volumecontend that more use can be made of Foucault than has yet beendone and that some of the uses to which Foucault has so far beenput run the risk of and occasionally simply amount to misuse.

This interdisciplinary volume brings together a group of esteemedscholars, recognized for their command of and insights intoFoucault's oeuvre. They demonstrate the many respects in whichFoucault's project of an ontology of the present remains vital andcontinues to yield compelling insights and show that an ontology ofthe present is restricted to no particular terrain, but insteadranges widely and on paths that frequently intersect.

The essays in this much-needed new collection address the keycomponents of Foucault's thought, ranging from his approach topower, biopolitics and parrhesia to analysis of key texts such asFolie et Déraison and Histoire de lasexualité.

This collection will spark debate amongst students and scholarsalike and demonstrates that that every further encounter withFoucault's corpus is more likely than not to demand a revisiting ofinterpretations already formulated, conclusions already drawn, usesalready devised.

Contributors include Didier Eribon, Eric Fassin, John Forrester,Ian Hacking, Lynne Huffer, Colin Koopman, James Laidlaw, LaurenceMcFalls, Mariella Pandolfi, Paul Rabinow and Cary Wolfe.
