Why read it?
1 author picked Creative Dreaming as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This ground-breaking book, written in the 1970’s, is still essential reading for anyone wishing to explore dreams as a creative resource rather than interpret them in the traditional Western psychological way.

If you think of dreams in a purely psychological way, this book could give you whole new perspectives.
From Jenny's list on dreams for writers who want to boost creativity.
