FROM THE PUBLISHER - What does it mean to write �This is not a pipe� across a bluntly literal painting of a pipe Ren� Magritte�s famous canvas provides the starting point for a delightful homage by French philosopher and historian Michel Foucault. Much better known for his incisive and mordant explorations of power and social exclusion Foucault here assumes a more playful stance. By exploring the nuances and ambiguities of Magritte�s visual critique of language he finds the painter less removed than previously thought from the pioneers of modern abstraction. One of the most important theorists of the twentieth century Michel Foucault�s 1926-1984 many influential books include Discipline and Punish The Archeology of Knowledge The History of Sexuality and The Discourse on Language. inventory #35917 ISBN: 9780520236943. paperback

A Comparison of this velocity in air and in water would be clear experimental test between the wave and particle theories of light since the former required light to travel faster in air; the later; in water.Fizeau returned to the rotating mirror to compare light's velocity in rare and dense media but here he was beaten by Foucault who announced on 30 April 1850 that "light travels faster in air than in water" Foucault's first experiment carried out in 1850 and written up in full in his doctorial thesis of 1853; was purely comparative; he announced no numerical values until 1862.
