This book looks at dreams from a 21st century perspective. Taking
inspiration from Freud 's insights, the contributors pursue
psychoanalytic interest into both neuroscience and the modern
psychoanalytic consulting room. The chapters cover laboratory
research on dreaming alongside the modern clinical use of dreams
and link together clinical and empirical research integrating
classical ideas with the plurality of psychoanalytic theoretical
constructs available to modern researchers. Dreams are created and
psychoanalysts writing about dreams have traditionally represented
the cutting edge of clinical and theoretical development. This book
is no exception to this and many of the contributions, as well as
the epistemological positions taken by the writers, represent a
kind of radical openness to new ways of thinking about the clinical
situation and about theory, which will be necessary for
psychoanalysis as a discipline in the coming years. In line with
the ambition of the editors of the volume, the book represents an
integration of theories and disciplines, which creates the
scientific context for modern psychoanalysis. Linking clinical
research to extra-clinical research via the royal road of dreaming
runs through all the contributions which cover dreaming as it sheds
light on clinical conditions such as depression, trauma or dreams
as they form a core aspect of clinical work, be that as a
co-construction or as shared play between therapist and patients.
The book provides insight through dreams to understand mental
function in all clinical situations and across all conditions.
