4.0 out of 5 stars Informative but not very deep, July 11, 2001

This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Interpreting Your Dreams (Mass Market Paperback)

This book explains many points of view on interpreting dreams, but only gives the big picture, not getting into too much detail. It's a great introduction to the subject, but not for use afterward on a daily basis. Also disappointing, it does not contain a dictionary of symbols and/or typical sightings in dreams. I guess they expect you to buy one. In that case, it should not be called "Complete" ... there are many more books I'd rather have on hand for reference.

5.0 out of 5 stars A really good and fun, soup to nuts look at dreams!, January 25, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Interpreting Your Dreams (Mass Market Paperback)

This book is well researched, fun to read and knowledgeable about the world of dreams from past to present. I especially liked the sections on "Dreaming Through The Life Span" and the section on what my dream symbols MAY mean.

This is the only book you need to get to learn about dreaming!

5.0 out of 5 stars Really Fun Read!, April 18, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to Interpreting Your Dreams (Mass Market Paperback)

I've read a lot on dreams. This book is by far the most comprehensive and easy to read. It's not goofy or too wedded to any one way of looking at dreams. The writing is really lively and humerous. And there is a lot of well-researched information, especially on the science of sleep. I'd say: buy this one!
