Very Important Book

A great book. You will not be sorry if you buy it.

Excellent sampling of perspectives on dreams

Opinions on the nature and meaning of dreams vary widely, from the uber-scientific to the uber-mystical. Rather than making a case for the "right" way to understand dreams or presenting a formulaic approach (which has already been done in countless books), this book surveys leaders in a number of different fields and presents their varied opinions to the reader via a compilation of essays. If you're looking for a quick, dogmatic answer to one of life's mysteries, this book will be frustrating to you. But if you're looking for different ideas on how to approach one particular dream, or looking for a perspective on how different experts approach this topic, you will likely find the book fascinating as I did. The friend who gave it to me is a psychiatrist, but the collection of essays that comprise the book were written by a wide range of people--including a psychiatrist, a psychologist, a shaman, a traditional dream researcher, a paranormal dream researcher, a social worker, a moderator for an online dream sharing group, and others. While I did not agree with all the opinions presented, I found the variety enriched my understanding and enlarged my "toolkit" for exploring my own dreams.

Fabulous! A complete guide to new ways to work with dreams!

DreamScaping is just great. Usually dream books are the opinion of one person. This book has dozens of people and they are clearly all tops in their fields. I really enjoyed this book and learned more about dreams and dreamwork in one reading than all the rest of the dream books I have read together. |Bill
