National Book Reviewers
Midwest Book Review 4/6/09:
"Forward thinking is fine in all, but one can find many answers just by looking
back. 'Backwards Guidebook' is a second in a series called 'Backwards.'
Asking many of life's questions, ranging from God to the meaning of life,
Danison and company keep it secular while waxing philosophical in ways that
will tax the mind, but leave it better from the exercise. A strong choice for those
looking for answers about life, the universe, and everything, 'Backwards
Guidebook' is a definite purchase for those who have read the first and
enjoyed it."
Midwest Book Review 5/8/08:
"BACKWARDS . . . is an examination of this phenomena (NDE) in which it's
questioned thoroughly with an educational eye, with a focus on the case of a
true story of a big time lawyer being on the brink . . . BACKWARDS is deftly
written and researched, and highly recommended . . . ."

Article in The Spokesman-Review, Spokane, WA, 2/7/09, by Andy
Hoye, entitled "Messages from near-death experiences":
"Danison's elaborate but very readable story is summarized in her first book,
"Backwards-Returning to Our Source for Answers" (A.P. Lee, 2007), and
discussed more formally in her new book, "Backwards Guidebook" (Lee, 248
pages, $15.95). She spent many months taking notes from memory, recording
as much as she could recall from her experience. . . It's a pretty tough
observation, which to me lends credibility: Danison is just telling us what she
learned - no sugar-coating."
Review in Enchantment newspaper, Sante Fe, NM, 11/08, in "Book
Chat" by Cindy Bellinger:
"If you have ever wondered what happens after you die, this book offers a
glimpse. In 1994, Author Nanci L. Danison 'died' then returned to life. Her
resulting book is about what she learned while on 'the other side,' and she
explains her experiences with down-to-earth metaphors and analogies. In
language that's easy to understand, the book moves outside the typical New
Age mumbo-jumbo and you may find yourself saying 'hmmmm, let me think
about this.' . . . It's a provocative book."
Article in The San Francisco Examiner, 10/15/08:
"Nanci Danison, who calls herself a tough, big law firm litigator, says she is
changed after a near-death experience."
New Age Retailer, May 2008:
"Backwards gives exciting new perspectives on whom we really are, the
afterlife, and how we can use spiritual powers in our lives."

Mention on Eckhart-Tolle-Forum, 11/7/08:
"In her excellent book-Backwards-Returning to Our Source for Answers, based
on her personal experience beyond death, Nanci Danison had this to say on
purpose: . . ."
Review on www.JohnJayHarper.com 2/5/09:
"If God is love, then God loves this book. This is a masterpiece; it is
second-to-none, the magnum opus of the near-death experience genre of
books in particular--and I have read the vast majority of them myself since the
opening bell was rung by Ray Moody, MD with "Life After Life: The
Investigation of a Phenomenon-Survival of Bodily Death. . . Specifically, I have
never, ever been so inspired upon reading an NDE that tells it like it is so
forcefully from a scientific and spiritual perspective. This testimony has teeth; it
does not mince words. . ."
Review in www.NormBennettLLC.com 1/2/09:
"Nanci Danison; She had a near death experience with almost total recall and
goes into great detail as to the purpose of our existence. Very, very good
information." Review at www.LoveNeverDies4U.org Forum 8/26/08: "I have
also read a very enlightening book called "Backwards: Returning to Our
Source for Answers." There is a profound chapter in part 3 entitled "What
Happens When We Die."
Review at www.In2Deep.Wordpress.com, 6/29/08:
"With this thought, I highly recommend "Backwards-Returning to Our Source
for Answers," by Nanci Danison, a near-death experiencer of the tenth degree! .
. . This book is mind-boggling, however, I sense it is our time to awaken, and,
thus, many are being chosen to have such experience to help point the way. . .
Ms. Danison's experience is the most in-depth I have ever read and she is a
very skilled wordsmith."
Mentioned at www.LoveReading.co.uk, 11/7/08:
"Outlines a life plan to access and maximize our true spiritual nature, including
how to heal ourselves, consciously manifest more favorable events in our
lives, and enjoy unconditional love."
Review at www.Very-Clever.com/books, 10/15/08:
"I am thankful for Nanci Danison's insightful recall of her personal NDE which
resonated deeply within me; and, as I read her account, I had the sense I was
hearing truth spoken, finally! I was recently privileged to hear Ms. Danison
speak in person and found her personal account of her profoundly
life-changing experience surprisingly candid and honest, thus, very credible - a
woman who needed to do something with the knowledge she was given
during her incredible journey and in so doing, she's become God's Messenger.
This is a book I will return to over and over again."
