The Key to Dream Analysis

Description

There have been many books on the subject of dream analysis, most of them repeating what has been written many times before, and many of them of somewhat dubious value. Ray Douglas presents the subject from a previously unknown perspective: from the point of view of the inner feelings, also known as the higher emotional centre, which, he claims, is the actual source of dream imagery. He has been recording and interpreting dreams for many years, and has experienced for himself all the types of dream mentioned in this book. This is no small claim, for The Key to Dream Analysis describes every known type of dream, as well as every piece of information that may be useful in understanding our dreams. Familiar dream symbols so beloved by authors of traditional dream-books are not neglected here, but they are analysed in depth, and the whole dreaming process is explained with clarity. As Sigmund Freud pointed out, 'The interpretation of dreams is the royal road to knowledge of the unconscious activities of the mind'. It pays to take our dream lives seriously.
