Martin Buber's Dialogue
Martin Buber, one of the twentieth century's most distinguished and creative thinkers, famously argued that the fundamental fact of human existence is person with person, and that practicing genuine dialogue is necessary for anyone who wishes to become authentically human. This book seeks to unleash and reassemble the core elements for practicing dialogue--turning and addressing, and then listening and responding. Despite what many say, the innermost growth of the self does not come in relation to one's self. Rather, attaining one's authentic human existence (one's innate self-realization) emerges again and again through genuine dialogue, through ""participatory consciousness."" We become authentically human in and through our relationships with others. Here's the point--instead of having dialogues, human beings mutually become dialogue with others. Individual human beings in dialogue with one another become memorable mutualities found nowhere else, opening out into the world.

A Life of Dialogue
In A Life of Dialogue: Love Letters to My Daughters, one finds an honest, unflinching, and authentic voice that creates a unique outlook on multiple sclerosis. Kramer juxtaposes the quest for spiritual awakening with hiding from the effects of his MS. In so doing, he offers poignant insights into living with an illness that is even now too little understood.

His spirituality informs seemingly mundane interactions with a refreshing candor. Turning toward others, trusting what is given, and responding openly, led him to becoming uniquely human in each interaction.This book is written in an uplifting and surprising way. It finds essential humanity through documenting triumphs within a life of ever-narrowing confines.

It finds essential humanity through documenting triumphs within a life of ever-narrowing confines.""In this moving and inspiring memoir, Kenneth Kramer presents us with his remarkable spiritual journey. The work is beautifully written as letters to his daughters, which illustrates the overwhelming and unconditional love between them. In spite of his lifelong struggle with MS, Kramer continues to 'bow before the universe with profound gratitude for its overwhelming generosity.'""--Harold Kasimow, Author, Interfaith Activism: Abraham Joshua Heschel and Religious Diversity; George Drake Professor of Religious Studies Emeritus, Grinnell College.""Whether you sit with this book at a cafe or your kitchen table, you hold an intimate, honest, and passionate love story told by an amazing teacher, seeker, and scholar. [The book] takes the reader into the most honest, humorous, heartbreaking reality. Kramer can't help but be a teacher, and what he teaches is the power of genuine conversation. You will most definitely have one with him as you read it.""--Ziggy Rendler-Bregman, Author, The Gate of Our Coming and Going""The letter format was an inspired choice: each one is a parable that works more tellingly than any continuous narrative would have. They all have a clear point, conveying a wide range of feelings and gracefully linking the particular with the universal.""--RD Bolam, Certified Hakomi Therapist ""As I read over this remarkable life story in the form of letters to his daughters, I recall a passage from the poet Yeats, that we praise the soldier who returns victorious from the trenches, but rarely do we praise the person who goes deeply within himself and emerges victorious. I am convinced [Kramer] has emerged victorious.""--Robert C.

Dialogically Speaking
What makes us authentically human? According to Maurice Friedman, world-renowned Martin Buber scholar, translator, and biographer, it is genuine dialogue. "When there's a willingness for dialogue," Friedman says, "then one must 'navigate' moment-by-moment. It's a listening process." Friedman addresses our humanity in ever-unique ways through his dialogue with philosophy, literature, religion, and psychotherapy. At least two things make this book new. Friedman presents his wide-ranging thought directly in five original essays forming an "intertextual compass," which is then elaborated upon by colleagues familiar with his work. Second, a special feature of this book is found at the end of each part which invites readers to engage with questions drawn from and pointing toward Friedman's writing. The book's intended audience includes teachers, scholars, and students interested in dialogical approaches to any of the human sciences. In a time when we are in danger of losing our human birthright, Friedman's interdisciplinary insights point us again to "the touch of the other."
