"Keck's impressive work examines the way in which belief in angels
came to permeate medieval Christian society as deeply as belief in
evolution steeps ours....Keck's exposition of the social-political
consequences of angelology is fascinating....If I were to recommend
one book on angels, Keck's impressive 'everything you wanted to
know about angels but were afraid to ask' would be the
one."--Theological Studies
"Keck shows great depth in understanding of the subject from the
inside: rather than viewing it as a curious set of phenomena, as an
anthropological historian would do, Keck understands why medieval
people took angels so seriously and how they were an integral part
of medieval thought as a whole."--Speculum
