What is dreaming? What causes dreaming? Why are dreams so strange and why are they so hard to remember? Modern science has given us a new and increasingly clear and complete picture of how dreaming is created by the brain.This picture is important not only for understanding dreaming itself, but also for a science of consciousness and of mental health and illness. This book focuses on dreaming to introduce the reader to sleep laboratory science and to the cellular and molecular mechanisms of sleep. It shows how the new science of dreaming affects theories in psychoanalysis, and how it helps to understand the basis of mental illness.

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Leichte Abnutzungen. "Do we dream in black and white or colour? Can the blind see in their sleep? Why are dreams so bizarre? What ls the purpose of dreaming? Replacing dream mystique with modern dream science, J. Allan Hobson provides a new and increasingly complete picture of how dreaming is created by the brain. This picture is important not only for understanding dreaming itself, but also for the science of consciousness and health. Focusing on dreaming to explain the mechanisms of sleep and sleep laboratory science, this book explores how the new science of dreaming is affecting theories in psychoanalysis, and how it is helping our understanding of the causes of mental illness. J. Allan Hobson interweaves his own dreams to explain the fascinating discoveries of modern sleep science, whilst offering the reader a unique opportunity to reconsider his or her dream theory. He reveals how dreaming maintains and develops the mind, why we go crazy in our dreams in order to avoid doing so when we are awake, and why sleep is not just good for health but essential to life."--Dust jacket.
