Reviews

""...[this] thought-provoking and beautifully laid out book has deep-seated implications for psychodynamic scholars."" - Bulletin of the Menninger Clinic ""This is the most thorough and persuasive exploration of the epistemology of dream interpretation within psychoanalysis that has ever appeared. Overall, the depth and sophistication of the scholarship, thoughtfulness, and ultimate philosophical, research, and clinical implications of the work make this a landmark book."" - Bennett Simon, Harvard Medical School and The Boston Psychoanalytic Society and Institute ""The critique of Freud is the best I've seen, and the careful construction of the argument supporting the meaningfulness of dreams is excellent. The book demands to be inserted into the current field of methodological controversy swirling around psychoanalysis."" - William Meissner, S. J., Boston College
