As his stories unfold, Daniel Dancer reflects on spirituality, indigenous knowledge, quantum physics, psychology, and ecological principles. Humor, synchronicity, delight, and heartfelt struggle are all present in these tales. The result is a breath of wholeness, a gift for our apocalyptic times and for a culture that has forgotten its connection to nature.

The sacred, magical role that art has held in everyday life since the dawn of humanity is often lost in modern society. Dancer's timely work is a quest to revive this form of art, weaving the shards of our failing culture and fragmented ecosystems into a celebration of possibility. Entertaining, full of surprise at every turn, and beautifully illustrated, Desperate Prayers helps map the way home to our authentic selves.

The main purpose of this book is to acquaint people with a form of cellular democracy which will regulate society from the grass roots as well as meet the needs of all its members. It is the final bit of a life long quest to fix the craziness infesting our world. It's based on the fundamental premise that Capitalism is not capable of dealing with our environment problem or producing the peaceful world needed for that project because it is based on property rights which must have a military to protect them; we simply can't solve environmental problems in an atmosphere of international conflict. It also contains a research paper which shows that reincarnation is totally consistent with science and personal observation; thus our belief in God results from our bringing it with us from all our incarnations where it has played a role in dealing with life's great mysteries. Since most of our wars have religion involved then this knowledge should help in creating the peaceful world required if we are to have any hope of curing our sick world.

The Author has experience in Ice Age Climatology and Geology in the area from the Black Hills, South Dakota to eastern Nebraska with Midland College, the University of Nebraska Department of Geology and Morrill Hall State Museum of Paleontology. He mapped Ice Age deposited soils and landforms including fossil deposits. He performed Arctic Surveys with the US Navy Oceanographic Office ships USNS Dutton and Michelson and the Coast and Geodetic Survey ships Surveyor and Oceanographer. These were the first modern geophysical surveys in the North Sea and offshore Alaska, Washington to California and Hawaii. His particular expertise in modern geophysical surveying and mapping has led to well grounded understanding of coastal and sea floor features of the arctic and Antarctic, using new ice and sediment mapping techniques tied to modern navigation and positioning. His hobby is understanding man’s adaptability to climate, early migrations, exploration and appreciation of the Neolithic mind gaining man’s survival abilities. Adequate education of the public, including historic climate change information, for planet management seems necessary. The fact that 700 million years ago, earth was locked in ice cover for millions of years should be realized. Then vast volcanic eruptions created a greenhouse gas atmosphere and earth’s climate alternated between too hot and too cold for human development. These conditions should be understood and avoided at all costs. For future survival, humans must understand the importance of climate and earth management, and live and act accordingly.
