We all dream, and 98 per cent of us can recall our dreams the next
morning. Even in today's modern age, it is human nature to wonder
what they mean. With incredible new discoveries and stunning
science, Why We Dream will give you dramatic insight into yourself
and your body. You'll never think of dreams in the same way again .
. . Groundbreaking science is putting dreams at the forefront of
new research into sleep, memory, the concept of self and human
socialization. Once a subject of the New Age and spiritualism, the
science of dreams is revealed to have a crucial role in the biology
and neuroscience of our waking lives. In Why We Dream, Alice Robb,
a leading American science journalist, will take readers on a
journey to uncover why we dream, why dreaming matters, and how we
can improve our dream life - and why we should. Through her
encounters with scientists at the cutting edge of dream research,
she reveals how: - Dreams can be powerful tools to help us process
the pain of a relationship break-up, the grief of losing a loved
one and the trauma after a dramatic event - Nightmares may be our
body's warning system for physical and mental illness (including
cancer, depression and Alzheimer's) - Athletes can improve their
performance by dreaming about competing - Drug addicts who dream
about drug-taking can dramatically speed up their recovery from
addiction. Robb also uncovers the fascinating science behind lucid
dreaming - when we enter a dream state with control over our
actions, creating a limitless playground for our fantasies. And as
one of only ten per cent of people with the ability to lucid-dream,
she is uniquely placed to teach us how to do it ourselves.
