“This is a brilliant book that shows an admirable mastery of all the relevant texts—including the interviews—and proceeds to problematize Foucault’s work at its deepest level, i.e., its ontology of the order of the world and of the constitution of the subject.”—Hubert Dreyfus, University of California, Berkeley
“In this masterpiece of philosophical interpretation, Béatrice Han deciphers Foucault’s ‘unthought’ by means of an attentive confrontation of his work on Kant, Nietzsche, and Heidegger.”—Dominique Janicaud, University of Nice
“Han does a commendable job, then, of providing a sympathetic, yet critical, reading of Foucault’s philosophical projects. And in the end, this is the particular value and charm of her book: an analysis that never flinches from identifying shortcomings, vagueness, and contradictions in Foucault’s arguments, yet shows a reasoned appreciation for the ambitions, insights, and invaluable contributions of his work.”—Greg Eghigian, Penn State University
