Dancing Past the Dark Nancy Evans Bush

Almost one in five near-death experiences are not peaceful suggestions of heaven. In a wide-ranging and far from gloomy look at "the other near-death experience," Nancy Evans Bush gives the first comprehensive look at a fascinating but neglected topic: NDEs and deathbed visions of fear, emptiness, and even hell.A wonderfully readable book, grounded in thirty years of experience and research, Dancing Past the Dark: Distressing Near-Death Experiences is packed with first-person accounts, engrossing discussion and factual answers to a myriad of questions, both religious and secular, with practical suggestions for integrating such an experience or encountering one as a caregiver. Here are ways of thinking about the subject that will be new to many readers. What becomes evident is that to see these only as a terrible threat about death is largely to miss their point."...absolutely enthralling--literary, adventurous, incisive, informative and smart." ~Steve Volk,  Fringe-ology"The book is an outstanding piece of work. It is a wonderfully comprehensive and rich history of what can be known and what might be considered about NDEs [and] bursts with anecdote and commentary, reinforcing for the reader that there is always another way to see things."  ~ Wayne Rollins, MDiv, PhD, Soul and Psyche, Jung and the Bible, and other titles"Dancing Past the Dark is what we have all been waiting for... a must for any experiencer of...any type of encounter with the numinous.  ~ P. M. H. Atwater, LHD, Near-Death Experiences: The Rest of the Story"A valuable contribution to the NDE literature and engagingly written. It needs to be seen and read by the wider public." ~J. Harold Ellens, MDiv, PhD, Understanding Religious Experience; Miracles: God, Science and Psychology
