DREAMING – A VERY SHORT INTRODUCTION
£0.00
Dreaming: A Very Short Introduction is a book that accounts for J. Allan Hobson’s theory of dreaming, the activation-synthesis model, according to which dreams are caused by physiological brain processes1. The book also explores how the new science of dreaming is affecting psychoanalysis theories and how it is helping our understanding of the causes of mental illness2. Dreaming is most usefully defined and measured through perceptual, cognitive, and emotional qualities: its formal features rather than its content3.
