Few information loom as large in the intellectual background of trend and postcolonialism as Frantz Fanon. An intellectual who committed his life to activism, he utilised his deep understanding of psychology and philosophy in the service of the motion for democratic involvement and political sovereignty in his indigenous Martinique and around the world. With FranzFanon, Peter Hudis presents a penetrating critical biography of the activist's life and work. Countering the prevailing perception that Fanon's efforts to modern thought can be wholly identified by an advocacy of violence, Hudis presents his work instead as a whole, exhibiting that its nuances - and thus its importance - can only just be loved in light of Fanon's efforts to fuse philosophical theory and real practice. By firmly taking very seriously Fanon's philosophical and mental health efforts, as well as his political activism, Hudis presents a robust and perceptive new view of the person and his achievements. This brief, richly perceptive release to Fanon gives new push to his ideas, his life, and his example for people involved in radical political theory and taking action against oppression surrounding the world today.
