This book introduces and applies Foucault's key concepts to the field of psychology and the social sciences. Drawing on Foucault's College de France lectures, it argues for a historical, genealogical analysis of Foucault's work and examines a wide range of social issues such as racism, sexuality, paedophilia, subjectivity and power.

This book introduces and applies Foucault's key concepts and procedures, specifically for a psychology readership. Drawing on recently published College de France lectures, it is useful to those concerned with Foucault's engagement with the 'psy-disciplines' and those interested in the practical application of Foucault's critical research methods.
