Why Are You Afraid Of Silence?

If you should pick up a book by Erling Kagge, you would find a drab, monochrome cover imprinted with only the title of the book, a subtitle and the author's name. The title: "Silence!"  The sub-title, "In the age of noise," and the author, Erling Kagge.  And like myself, you may be asking yourself, "And who is Erling Kagge and why did he write the book?"
