Order of Things

The Order of Things is a landmark philosophical work by Michel Foucault, exploring the evolution of knowledge and how human sciences have been structured throughout history. Foucault examines the historical shifts in thinking that led to the development of disciplines like economics, biology, and sociology, focusing on the concept of "epistemes" — the underlying structures that shape knowledge in different historical periods. With its groundbreaking analysis, this book challenges conventional understandings of culture, science, and the human experience, offering a new way of viewing the world’s intellectual history.
