Dreamscaping : New Techniques for Understanding Yourself and Others

While more than 1,500 books on dreams are currently in print, this collection of essays is not only a rich resource of information but also an entertaining and illuminating read. There's "A Shamanic Dream Journey" by Greywolf Swinney, "Dream Lovers" by Jenny Davidow, "Six Steps for Incubating Dreams" by Gayle Delaney, "How Dreams Reflect Neurological Disorders" by Oliver Sachs (author of the The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat), and 27 others. Among the writings are techniques for recalling dreams, deciphering meanings, creating dialogue with dream characters, creating dream journals, understanding recurring nightmares, and applying dream messages to real life. The editors also are highly respected authorities in the field. Krippner was the past president of the renowned Association for Humanistic Psychology and former director of the dream laboratory at Maimonides Medical Center, while Waldman is the founding editor of the Transpersonal Review. --P.
