"This is a well-timed book . . . It's easy to forget how many truly history-making events occurred on the watch of Bush I. Naftali covers them all—the end of the Cold War, the fall of the Berlin Wall, the collapse of Yugoslavia, the first Gulf War (with its uncertain conclusion seen through very different eyes given the current Iraq War)—in an informative, yet easily digestible style."—Robert A. George, The New York Post

"Against the tradition of combat memoirs, [Finkel] chooses to keep himself out of the action, so that The Good Soldiers sometimes reads more like a novel than a reporter’s journal, with Finkel as the omniscient narrator . . . The Good Soldiers is more than a splendid account of men in combat. It will stand as the classic book about an extremely challenging war."—Daniel Ford, Durham, New Hampshire, Michigan War Studies Review

"The publication of Foucault's lectures is momentous not only because they deepen our understanding of his books and essays, but because they dramatically change the way we read him. This study of the ancient practice of parresia—philosophical truth-telling—forces us to abandon the view that his late thought was a turn way from politics. The key question in these lectures is the relationship between philosophy and politics: their necessary dependence, but impossible coincidence. The political significance of philosophy was an acute problem for Foucault throughout his life. It remains a definitive question today for anyone concerned with the future of Western political thought and practice."—Johanna Oksala, University of Dundee, UK
