"Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through researchers/faculty." (Choice, 1 August 2011)
"In sum, then, O'Leary and Falzon have brought together a good and interesting set of essays that are well worth reading. This volume will be of interest to all scholars who work with Foucault's texts and might be recommended to advanced undergraduate students." (Notre Dame, 22 March 2011)
"As a whole the volume on Foucault's relation to philosophy is a fascinating contribution to the vast literature on his work. Although the papers within the volume were somewhat short, they open up many divergent areas of potential research for the future." (Metapsychology Online, January 2011)
