Silence is often viewed as an out-of-awareness phenomenon against which talk is perceived. By reversing polarities and treating silence as a figure to be examined against talk, we are given a heightened awareness of the universal aspects of human behavior while emphasizing its complex nature as a cultural phenomenon.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Praeger","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45085720739991,"sku":"9780893913106","price":5609.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780893913106.webp?v=1767265332","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/perspectives-on-silence-9780893913106","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
