- Abstract
The book "Religion as Relation: Studying Religion in Context" edited by Peter Berger, Marjo Buitelaar, and Kim Knibbe aims to make methodological issues in the academic study of religion accessible to students and those interested in the field. The book explores the different methodologies and disciplines that shape religious studies and how they understand and analyze religion in relation to specific contexts. It includes case studies from various academic disciplines, such as philosophy, history, psychology, sociology, and anthropology. The book provides a valuable introduction to methodological perspectives and traditions in religious studies, although some chapters may be more challenging for undergraduate students. Overall, it is a useful tool for anyone interested in the study of religion and its contextual diversity.
