"In this elegantly written volume, Hjelm introduces and critiques the work of the 20th centurys most influential sociologist of religion, and then he retrieves the best of Bergers ideas for the 21st century. Even those of us who think we know Berger will find new insight here."
Nancy Ammerman, Boston University, USA.
"In this excellent resource for both novice and expert readers, Hjelm carefully situates Peter Berger's scholarship in relationship to the nineteenth and twentieth-century intellectual contexts to which Berger was responding, discusses his influence and ongoing legacy in the academic study of religion, and offers an account of what perhaps remains of value in his work for twenty-first century scholars of religion."
