Towards A Theological Ethics Of Communication

BY RACHEL MUERS

Brief Description:
The British Quaker theologians 800,000 word PhD thesis on Silence. This is indeed written in very dense theological language, based on three themes, Feminist philosophical reflection on silence, a reading of Bonheoffer's ethics and the author's life as a Quaker. She tellingly quotes Gemma Fiumara paraphrasing Wittgenstein "Only when we know how to be silent will that of which we cannot speak begin to tell us something". The central theological claim explored in the book is that God listens, and that God's listening is integral to who God is.SECONDHAND COPY IN GOOD CONDITION.
