Majoring in psychology, i have been taking sociology as a minor field 2 years by now. our teacher has required us to review Peter berger's book and upon reading, it is of my great appreciation to deeply understand the field. in this light, i have uncover the shadows that once i thought were the facts i need not to look over.
