Customer Reviews

an expansive review of the field of dream studies

This book is an interesting, intelligent and all encompassing overview of the field of dream studies. This is not the New Age pablum that some might fear because of the area of focus, but is rather a serious scientific and cultural analysis of dream studies in recent times. As someone who doesn't know alot about the field I enjoyed it, and I think it would be interesting for those already well read in the area as well.
