| Summary: | The author of numerous previous books of broad appeal and scholarly acclaim on subjects ranging from sociological theory to religious ethics in government and economic systems, and the coauthor of a vastly influential treatise on The Social Construction of Reality, Berger unfolds in Redeeming Laughter a new perspective on a classic domain. Berger`s comic terrain is at once noble and amusing, the terrain of Erasmus and Swift. Like his predecessors`, Berger`s writing in these pages is bolstered with exemplary learning and wry observation. |
