The Watkins Dictionary of Dreams

With an unparalleled breadth of knowledge, this is the ultimate dictionary for dream interpretation. Not only is it illuminating, but it’s entertaining, offering plenty of room for discoveries about yourself. Mario Reading’s exhaustive research has drawn on folklore and fine art, superstition and science, psychology and philosophy—but his interpretations are original, based on readings from the work of the great dream psychologists, from Plato to Jung. He reveals the meaning of virtually every symbol known to dream analysts, and dreams that have averted disasters or changed history, that came from the Bible and other religious texts, and that have influenced films, books, music, art, and popular culture.
