Allan Hobson

Psychodynamic Neurology

Dreams, Consciousness, and Virtual Reality

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book presents a lively and novel way of thinking about the value of dreaming, based in solid comprehension of scientific research on sleep and dreams, but with deep understanding of psychoanalytic and other kinds of interpretations of dreams. Our dreams are a mixture of anticipated virtual as well as remembered real experience. This book tells the story of how neuroscience has helped us reach this startling and exciting conclusion and how the new scientific model builds upon and departs from the dream theories of the past.
