This book could've been a 12-page article if the redundancies had been taken out.

I've now read the words concomitant or ontological enough for several lifetimes.

It made me re-think my decision to go back to school.

Phew. This was a great book which has really helped my understanding of Foucault's work overall, not just in the field of education. Seeing the frameworks Foucault created applied consistently to one field made them more accessible to my mind. That said, it will take weeks (and much revisiting of the text) for all of this info to trickle down through my brain into my long term understanding.
