Summary: interesting,informative ,knowledgable and totally spellbound
Review: I totaly enjoyed reading this book. I also enjoyed Sylvia's first book, but this one is much more informative. There is just soo much in it that I know I will have to continue to read it over and over so I can get the most out of it. She explains things so you can understand it and follow through with ,if you so choose. I only wish I had known of Sylvia earlier in my life; and that her book had been written earlier. I could have definetly have used her guidance quite a few years ago. I would recommend that everyone should read this book to further understand themselves and their purpose here. Peopple who do not see the world as Sylvia does shouls still read this book but just have an open mind ; you might be surprised at what might make sense in an otherwise totally confusing and chaotic worl.

Review: More superstitious horse manure from a con artist who plays on people's fears to make a pile of money.

Summary: From one Healer to another
Review: This is a wonderful book. I am always interested in reading books about other healers and energy users who can authentically tell it like it is. Sylvia has a lot to share with people. She is a very gifted woman and her books are fascinating. Read this book. It can help you and it can open your mind to new possibilities which then can lead you to ways that you too can make a difference in the world.

Summary: Fifty million flies can't be wrong!
Review: In a world where most people don't even know how electricity or internal combustion works, I'm sickened that books which fan our compulsion for the superstitious and the unprovable sell jillions of copies. This book is no better or worse than any of its competitors, and like its competitors, doesn't contain a shred of anything veridicatable. There's also the usual spate of "predictions", which if the track record for predictions is consistent, will be about as accurate as anything else we've seen in this category (i.e., not at all). I find it more than a little hypocritical that parents who grouse about how kids "grow up stupid" don't see anything wrong with wallowing around in this sort of anti-intellectual, anti-scientific hogwash.

Summary: Excellent, informative, a can't put it down book.
Review: I have seen Sylvia on the Montel Williams show quite a few times. I have read her book. Each time I've seen her on TV I got the feeling she was always speaking from her heart. I got the same feeling when I read her book. I found her book very interesting, and I learned some things, too! Sylvia is more than willing to not only share her ideas, but let us all know "how to" get in touch with our own spirit world. Sylvia has so many great ideas in this book of helping us to become better people. She writes just like she speaks so you feel almost as if she's talking just to you. Keep up the good work Sylvia!!

Summary: An enlightening and interesting read for anyone!
Review: Sylvia Browne takes a different approach in "The Other Side and Back" by making it a guide to achieving and understanding the lessons she's become famous for teaching the world. It has a few repeated items items from "Adventures of a Psychic", only because those facts are important to know for the in-depth study of the lessons in the new book. I thought I had found out all Sylvia had to teach(from watching her lectures on TV, reading her biography, and attending a live lecture), but I learned SO MANY new things, I was astonished and somewhat embarrassed that I had assumed I knew it all already. "The Other Side and Back" tells us all about the dark side,where the bad people go since there is no flame-ridden hell like we had assumed, how to astral travel in our dreams, interesting (and humorous) ideas and stories about the mind and its potential.I loved this book because it gave an all around revitalizing look at how we can control our mindset and vocabulary to lead more positive, learned lives and finally reach our home with God.

Summary: Predictions, what predictions?
Review: I had three major issues with this book. It was uncomfortable reading that every one on the other side is 30 years old and that we get 5 exit points. These seem too convenient and almost childish. Sylvia has done a disservice to herself and her readers by peppering her book with Christian teachings. By taking this approach, she severly restricted its universal appeal. I strongly believe that religion has nothing to do with spirituality and I don't think Sylvia has learned this lesson yet. Spirituality transcends religion and is beyond petty religious differences. Spiritiuality is broad and deep, very broad and deep. You have to lose your identity, before you can experience spirituality and that is a lesson that religion does not teach us. Religion thrives on differences, while spirtuality emphasizes interconnectedness. Just witness the turmoil throughout this wonderful world and you will realize that for most religions spiritualism is dead. Finally, Sylvia why did you include that chapter on predictions? You did yourself a great disservice. This chapter alone destroyed your credibility in my eyes. You made no reference to: September 11 2001; the Taliban's fall, Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda's terrorism; Sadam Hussien's ungraceful fall; North Korea's leader; the Colombia disaster; the Iraq war; the successful Mars landing; the Bush, Gore presidential fight. And why did you think it was necessary to predict the events in the lives of some Hollywood celebrities? Pretty petty stuff in the light of what you missed. Sylvia, I hope, these constructive criticisms will not compel you to cast me in the role of a Dark entity.

Summary: THIS BOOK WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE FOREVER FOR A BETTER GOOD
Review: The Other Side and Back is by far, world renowned psychic Sylvia Browne's best book to date! If you think this book is just about the "other side" think again! Like Sylvia and her husband have said many times over, this book is more of a "how to" live your life. And I strongly believe that it has personally brought me closer to God, and to connect with my own spirituality. This book is 'A MUST READ!!' Buy at least 2 copies, one for you, and one for a dear friend or someone close to you for the holidays, believe me, they will end up thanking you for life! It opens your mind, makes you see a bigger picture of what life and living is all about, and it's done in that unique "Sylvia" way, written like only she could write it. And I was lucky enough to meet her and spend time with her at her spiritual salon last weekend, she is even more remarkable in person! And I thought nothing could top this book! Her presence that just fills the room, is something that you can't quite explain, and I know I have been blessed and my life has changed forever, for a better good, for having met her and spending time with her, discussing many of lifes issues. Somehow, she is the most remarkable person I have ever and will ever meet! We are truly blessed to be in such good company and comfort that her words hold for us. Open this book, and I guarantee, you won't be able to put it down. It's reading addiction, I am warning you! And in the back of the book, you'll find very interesting predictions for the Millenium. If you never pick up another book, this one will make you wanting more. And I hear she's working on another!
