Contents:

Introduction: Fanon in our time -- 1. The path to political and philosophical commitment -- 2. Self and other: the dialectic of Black skin, white masks -- 3. The engaged psychiatrist: Blida and the psychodynamics of racism -- 4. The engaged philosopher: the FLN and the Algerian revolution -- 5. The strategist of revolution: Africa at the crossroads -- 6. Toward a new humanity: The wretched of the earth.

Summary: "Frantz Fanon was a psychiatrist, philosopher, revolutionary and writer whose hugely influential books--including Black skin, white masks--have informed a wide range of studies, and inspired revolutionary movements from Palestine to Sri Lanka and South Africa. Frantz Fanon: philosopher of the barricades is a critical biography of his extraordinary life and work. Peter Hudis draws on his entire story--from his upbringing in Martinique to his mature efforts to fuse psychoanalysis with philosophy--to show that Fanon's writing speaks directly to today's struggles against racism and alienation."--Back cover.
