Dream Work: Around the World and Across Time: An
Anthology is a book that brings together compelling writings
on dreams from the pioneers of Western psychology, modern
psychotherapists, world religions and myths, and from great
philosophers, scientists, poets, and more. Its wide range of
selections can inform and inspire personal and group dream work,
as well as offer ways we can engage with, understand, and
interpret our own dreams and dreaming. For a link to website
