{"product_id":"9781936912537","title":"Dancing Past the Dark","description":"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.\u003cp\u003eA wonderfully readable book, grounded in thirty years of experience and research, Dancing 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“…absolutely enthralling—literary, adventurous, incisive, informative and smart… one of the strongest, most thought-provoking books on the paranormal I've ever seen.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e~Steve Volk\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFringe-ology\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“The book is an outstanding piece of work.
