Gets a bit too curmudgeonly at the end, and a bit too invested in representations labeled as masculine and feminine (admittedly no surprise for a committed Jungian)—but solid nonetheless.
One of the very few books about dreams and dreaming to ground the phenomenon in actual science. Can't recommend it enough.
