The Other Side of Language
First published in 1990. Our philosophy is grounded in only half a language, in which the power of discourse is deployed and the strength of listening ignored. We are inhabitants of a culture that knows how to speak but not how to listen, so we constantly mistake warring monologues for genuine dialogue. In this remarkable book, Gemma Corradi Fiumara seeks to redress that balance by examining the other side of language - listening. Synthesising the insights of Wittgenstein, Heidegger and Gadamer, among many others, she puts forward a powerful argument for the replacement of the `silent' silence of traditional Western thought with the rich openness of an authentic listening.

The Other Side of the Gate
For generations, youngsters from all over the Earth have been appearing in the mysterious world known as The Realms, taken from their old lives and left to live and survive in a strange new home, magically sectioned off into numerous different regions, and inhabited with all sorts of strange creatures and wonders. Now, it is 14 year old Daniel Weaver's turn to find himself drifting into this world in a tiny boat, and all he wants to know is why? For Daniel and his new friend Eleanor, the challenge before them is to set out from safe havens, and seek the source of the unknown powers responsible for inhabiting this strange world with human beings, and to find out their own ultimate purpose for being. The only way they can find the answers they seek, is for them to venture into The Realms.
