"The Sacred Canopy" is a sociological work by Peter L. Berger that explores how societies create and maintain a shared understanding of reality. Berger argues that humans construct a "canopy" of meaning through cultural and religious frameworks, which helps individuals make sense of their experiences and the world around them. The book discusses the role of religion in providing a sense of order and purpose, acting as a protective layer against chaos. Berger emphasizes that this canopy is not static; it evolves as societies change, reflecting the dynamic nature of human beliefs and social structures.
