520 |a Olivier Roy, the French social scientist, has produced an eminently engaging and persuasive analysis of what he describes as “holy ignorance.” Roy's book fills a glaring gap in the field of the study of religion that has recently focused and welcomed “religious comeback” or resurgence. He seeks to present a different interpretation to what sometimes has been a taken for granted notion by many scholars, including Peter Berger, John Esposito, and Rodney Stark, that the world now is experiencing a resurgence of many religions. These sociologists were also those who found their nonacademic audience among knowledge workers and religious leaders. The Holy Ignorance's counter argument is that “we are not witnessing a religious comeback, but a transformation” (3).
