This text is a one-stop resource on modern dream psychology, from
the pioneering theories of Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung to the
revolutionary findings of the sleep laboratory. An introduction to
the 20th century's major psychological theories about dreams and
dreaming, this work offers a detailed historical overview of how
these theories have developed from 1900 to the present. To help
readers understand the many different approaches modern
psychologists have taken, the book examines each approach in terms
of three basic questions: How are dreams formed? What functions do
dreams serve? How can dreams be interpreted? The book begins with a
brief historical review of the most important ideas about dreams
proposed in Western antiquity. It then presents comprehensive
descriptions of the dream theories of Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung, and
other clinical psychologists. It further discusses the
revolutionary discoveries of the modern sleep laboratory and the
most important research findings of experimental psychologists. The
book concludes with an examination of dreams in contemporary
popular psychology, a multifaceted analysis of a sample dream, and
an extensive bibliography on dream research.
