Book Title: Critical And Effective Histories: Foucault's Methods and Historical Sociology Book Author: Mitchell Dean Paperback: 256 pages Publisher: Routledge (May 4, 1994) Language: English ISBN-10: 0415064953 ISBN-13: 978-0415064958 Review '... a thoughtful critique of sociology, history and philosophy which thankfully avoids the more obvious and repetitive lines of Foucauldian commentary.' - Radical Philosophy Most Helpful Customer Reviews 5.0 out of 5 stars Indispensible reading September 5, 2008 By Foucault Fan Format:Paperback For anyone interested in how Foucault's methods were developed or employed, this book is a must read. While often dense (the author could have easily made his arguments using more accessible language), the book follows Foucault's relationship to a number of philosophical movements upon which he himself commented (Kant, Weber, the Frankfurt School), but does so in a way that convincingly and effectively delineates where Foucault differs (and in turn why his methods are so important to philosophy). Taken together with his essays "Nietzsche, history, genealogy" and "What is enlightenment?", as well as Nietzsche's "On the Genealogy of Morals", this book is an indispensable guide to Foucault's methods.
