"The book is timely, and introduces a whole new generation of serious dream workers unfettered by ideological loyalties and regressive news of the dream. It deals with an important but relatively unexplored dimension of dreaming consciousness. I found the book refreshing and stimulating. I hope it will chart a new direction for dream studies." — Montague Ullman, Clinical Professor of Psychiatry Emeritus, Albert Einstein College of Medicine
