By combining rigorous scientific exploration with clear prose, he offers a glimpse into how dreams are not just fleeting fantasies but crucial elements of the brain's processing and health. Each chapter presents a piece of the puzzle, fostering a deeper understanding of why we dream and what those dreams signify.
