Story Behind The Book

Reviews

Rich Text Area.<strong>Powerful Testimonials,</strong> review on Amazon.com by Paula Traverse: &quot;So many people have republished this title from its original author, but no one has taken the time to do what this author did. So many authors speak only from their own experience, and while that is great Ms. Davenport submitted the draft to a number of people to have the theory challenged in today's times and then included these personalized and detailed testimonials in the book. And to add validity to these testimonials the email address of the person giving the testimonial is included. I especially appreciate how the testimonials detail the original problem and how the person solves the problem using what they learned in the book. These testimonials are more than just flattery of having read the book or knowing the author; these testimonials are just as powerful and helpful as the authors' words. The testimonials give light as to how to apply the information in the book, and the possibility of the results that could be achieved by others, because of the results already received. Landone was a miraculous man and he made substantial contributions to new thought and self healing at a time when it was still considered blasphemous to do so. As a educated medical doctor and also educated in the sciences and also had a Doctor of Divinity degree. His words and lessons are a combination of his education and his experience. This information was priceless in his time, and still are the profound answer to why some people have what they say they want in life and others don't. Kudos to Sumner Davenport for taking this information and setting it to the test of modern day. If you can't find the answer in Landone's explanation, it just may be explained in greater specifics in one of the testimonials.&quot;
