It is generally accepted that language is primarily a means of communication. But do we always mean what we say - must we mean something when we talk? This book explores the other side of language, where words are incoherent and meaning fails us. it argues that this shadey side of language is more important in our everyday speech than linguists and philosophers recognize.
