The History of Sexuality, Vol. 1: An IntroductionThe History of Sexuality, Vol. 1: An Introduction by Michel Foucault
Buy new: $10.08 / Used from: $4.24
Foucault is essential post modern reading and defining for many reasons! I find his studies of human sexuality essential. I must admit to finding his investigations often simplified and over categorized... everything they seem to reject. But I would be lying if I claimed to not reference his study of the Bentham's Panoptic Prison system.
