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.
