Content introduction
"Writing is to get rid of the face of oneself", this is the clear ambition of Foucault with multiple faces. Despite his varied public life, he kept his personal life shrouded in mystery. In a sense, Foucault's life is also the life of French intellectuals. By interviewing many of Foucault's friends and relatives and consulting various texts of Foucault's works, David Massey has made a reliable, complete, full and detailed outline of Foucault's life and work on the basis of mastering a large amount of first-hand information, and introduced Foucault's complicated academic career and political activities in a strong and colorful way, and sorted out the evolution of his thoughts and representative works in different periods.
