Summary:
"Questions on the origins and meaning of dreams are as old as humankind, and as confounding and exciting today as
when
nineteenth-century scientists first attempted to unravel them. Why do we
dream
? Do dreams hold psychological meaning or are they merely the reflection of random brain activity? What purpose do dreams serve?
When
Brains
Dream
addresses these core questions about dreams while illuminating the most up-to-date
science
in the field. Written by two world-renowned
sleep
and
dream
researchers, it debunks common myths; that we only
dream
in REM
sleep
, for example—while acknowledging the mysteries that persist around both the
science
and experience of dreaming. Antonio Zadra and Robert Stickgold bring together state-of-the-art neuroscientific ideas and findings to propose a new and innovative model of
dream
function called NEXTUP (Network Exploration to Understand Possibilities). By detailing this model’s workings, they help readers understand key features of several types of dreams, from prophetic dreams to nightmares and lucid dreams."--From publisher.
