While this book is quite interesting in its own right, it was written in honor of a Danish theologian, Viggo Mortensen.. not the Viggo of Lord of the Rings fame. Before I bought the book, I tried to research the theologian Viggo, but did not find any information as far as a biography.

I see that I am not the only one to have made this mistake, because the amazon.com lists shows the books that other people have bought along with this one. It was also frustrating and misleading that amazon.com would sell this book with art books by "Lord of the Rings Viggo" at a discounted price.. suggesting that the two books are by the same author.
From a theological perspective, this book was generally about christian religion and the trials that christian faith faces in modern times.. I was expecting a much broader view of all religions worldwide.
