Could one really attribute such a grand action to Foucault (or any thiker for that matter)? And, if we stick to the tiresome battle of interpretations, then one owuld hve to say that your reading of Foucault is limited. I suggest reading somewhere or something after _Discipline and Punish_. I am not sure where, but somewhere it seems he mentions that power and resistance are not thinkable separate from one another. If this be true (in the correspondance sense of truth), then your claim seems factually incorrect. Still, given the post you are replying to, I would not suggest Foucault. I would suggest a package with some soothing teas and maybe a beautiful tea pot. Books are only so helpful, and the discipline of sitting and dragging one's eyes across them seems odd when one imagines what the body can do. Perhaps, the order of the mind is the order of the body, and the order of book reading participates in an affective constitution that is not the best for those whose spirits need lifting.
