<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This absorbing and original examination brilliantly argues that religion is a product of the society from which it springs--that it is the sacred canopy which every human society builds over its world to give it meaning. <p/>In this book, Berger expands on theories of knowledge that he first explored (with Thomas Luckmann) in <i>The Social Construction of Reality. </i>With illustrations drawn from a variety of primitive, ancient, and contemporary religions.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>PETER L. BERGER </b>is University Professor and Director of the Institute for the Study of Economic Culture at Boston University. He is the author of, among other books, <i>Invitation to Sociology, The Social Construction of Reality, </i>and <i>The Capitalist Revolution. </i>
