Madness and Civilization: A History of Insanity in the Age of Reason

By Michel Foucault

First UK edition, first printing of Foucault's groundbreaking examination of the evolution of the meaning of madness in the cultures and laws, politics, philosophy, and medicine of Europe—from the Middle Ages until the end of the 18th century—and a critique of the idea of history and of the historical method. With an introduction by David Cooper, translated from the French by Richard Howard.

London: Tavistock Publications, [1967]. Original green boards with silver stamped titles, pp. xiv, 299. A very good copy in a very good, unclipped dust jacket. Binding is tight and sturdy, minimal wear to boards. Owner's bookplate to pastedown and signature to flyleaf, else internally clean and bright. Jacket shows some general light shelfwear, minor soil to back panel, protected in archival mylar.
