5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic resource for understanding dreams, November 1, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: The Dream Game (Hardcover)

This is the second, and I think better, of Faraday's two wonderful dream interpretation books. The first ("Dream Power") covered dream interpretation techniques, but also focused on the history of dream research and the different theories on what may be the biological causes and purposes of dreaming. This later book aims primarily at dream interpretation itself, how to understand what your dreams are telling you and using that to improve your life. It's very readable, not at all clinical, and is quite likely to inspire you to start a dream journal. Both books are great, but I came to this one first and it made a lasting impression on me, so I give it the sentimental edge. But check 'em both out if you're at all interested in this subject!

Thirty five years later, and being now a health professionnal, this is still the best, most intriguing, most eye-opening, most useful book I've ever read on how to interpret one's own dreams

This book is the most practical and easy to use dream interpretation book I have ever come across. I have read many books over the years, and this is the only one which teaches you to personalise your dream interpretation instead of just referring you to a dream dictionary, which is not much better than a generic horoscope in the daily times. It truly demystifies your dreams. I have got more out of the knowledge this book teaches than consulting a Jungian therapist with my dreams. Well worth it.
