Books by Michael J. Hyde

In this provocative work, Michael Hyde develops a philosophy of communication ethics in which the practice of rhetoric plays a fundamental role in promoting and maintaining the health of our personal and communal existence. He examines how the force of interruption is a catalyst for moral reflection and moral behaviour.

Takes you on an excursion through Western philosophy, religion, science, and art. Eloquently and engagingly, this title delves the canon of Western thought, drawing on figures from St Augustine and John Rawls to Leonardo da Vinci and David Hume to Kenneth Burke and Mary Shelley.
