'After The Interpretation of Dreams this book is perhaps the most valuable on this topic in the psychoanalytic literature. It is based on a series of lectures given to students in training in the 30's, and is addressed to those engaged in practical therapy. I strongly recommend it to all those who, with Freud and Sharpe, believe that dream analysis has a special place in our techniques for exploring the unconscious.' - Dr Harold Stewart, senior British psychoanalyst
