Michel Foucault's work has profoundly affected the teaching of such diverse disciplines as literary criticism, criminology, and gender studies. Arguing that definitions of abnormal behavior are culturally constructed, Foucault explored the unfair division between those who meet and those who deviate from social norms. Foucault's deeply visual sense of scenes such as ritual public executions, lends itself well to Moshe Süsser's dramatic illustrations.

Hardly half-an-hors-d-oeuvres worth...
By Mark Nadja
+ I know this is only supposed to be a beginner's introduction to the work of a notoriously difficult thinker, but this is No-cal Foucault Lite, the rice-cake of primers, so airy its hardly there at all.
+ First thing I'd like to know is who is the author? I mean, I see her name on the book but darned if I could find a bio or any credentials for her listed in the book. I'd like to think she had some...credentials, I mean...and wasn't just a hungry freelance writer with no special knowledge of Foucault who offered to pen a Foucault guide on the quick.
+ Because that's pretty much what this book reads like.
+ Well, whoever the author is, she seemed to resent that Foucault, being gay, didn't have enough to say explicitly about women and she felt compelled to point that out in annoying and unnecessary introjections throughout the text.
+ Do not pay the cover price for this book. It's simply not worth it. You could read it in the bookstore while your kid is enjoying Waldo Storytime or whatever in the children's section. Or pick it up, used, for a dollar somewhere. I'd say this is the rule of thumb with any of these "for beginner's" guides, but especially so in this case.
+ In fact, you likely could garner as much information about Foucault reading the back covers of his books--maybe even more.
+ The more of this review I write the more I realize how poor this book was and how dissatisfied I was with it. It's losing stars faster than a wax museum on fire. I can't truthfully say that it was a waste of time to read, because it hardly took any time at all to read. But if I opened the book knowing one scintilla's worth of knowledge of Foucault I closed it hardly knowing one-thousandth of a micron more.
+ In other words, I'm pretty much just as stupid as I was before which made reading this book kind of pointless.

Yes, It Really Is For Beginners
By John Roberson
This is by far the best intro to Foucault I've read. Thinking like Foucault use lots of complex language and have really complex ideas, but this book explains those ideas in a very easy-to-understand way. It's short, so you'll be finished quickly, but you will get a really good (introductory) sense of Foucault's entire project. That sense will stick with you pretty well, too, because every page is illustrated. This is an important thinker, and I can't imagine a better introduction. Read it.

Interesting Simple Intro
By therosen
As a beginner, the book presents Foucault as a documenter - discussing and disecting the history of power and professional relations. He covers knowledge and power, sexuality, prisons, mental health.... The span is enormous, highlighting Foucault's multidisciplinary reputation.
The downside of the book (indeed a limit of the Manga-like series) is it spends too much time on Foucault's role as as a chronicler of data, and leaves the reader on their own for much of his conclusions. An example: the book talks of Foucault's description of the medical clinic and doctor's "Gaze" but the book doesn't share if Foucault thought this was good or bad. Given Foucault's well deserved reputation as a complicated writer, this beginner could use the help.
