Discipline and Punish: The Birth of the Prison

by Foucault, Michel
No customer reviews yet ISBN 9780679752554

A brilliant work from the most influential philosopher since Sartre.

In this indispensable work, a brilliant thinker suggests that such vaunted reforms as the abolition of torture and the emergence of the modern penitentiary have merely shifted the focus of punishment from the prisoner's body to his soul.
