With in-depth insight and an unparalleled breadth of knowledge in more than 20,000 entries, this is the ultimate dictionary for dream interpretation

Interpreting your dreams can be extremely illuminating, expanding your capacity for awareness and self-understanding – but it should also be entertaining, leaving room for happy discoveries about yourself and your hidden drives.
Mario Reading's exhaustive research has drawn on folklore and fine art, superstition and science and readings of the great psychologists, philosophers and dream interpreters. His original interpretations are inspired by the readings of all the great dream psychologists, from Plato to Jung and beyond. He reveals the meaning of virtually every symbol known to dream analysts and includes innumerable strange facts, including dreams that have averted disasters or changed history, dreams from the Bible and other religious texts and dreams that have influenced films, books, music, art and popular culture. A unique feature of the book is the scattering throughout the text of short extracts from poetry, literature, film and dream diaries that shed an entertaining and often amusing light on the otherwise serious entries. An incomparable work of reference at an incomparable price.
