From historical overviews to a personal inventory of common nightmares
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Plenty of books have been written on dream interpretation, but few provide a specific, centralized focus on nightmares as does THE NIGHTMARE ENCYCLOPEDIA: YOUR DARKEST DREAMS INTERPRETED. Here are insights ranging from historical overviews on dream state theories and ideas to a personal inventory of common nightmares to help readers understand their underlying messages. Four hundred entries discuss universal symbols, spiritual teachings, and the treatment of nightmares in film music and the arts, providing an excellent blend of background and reference.

I had this book on my wishlist for a year waiting somewhat impatiently for it to become available and now I finally have the pleasure of owning it. "The Nightmare Encyclopedia: Your Darkest Dreams Interpreted" is an interesting, highly informative source on the meanings of our most feared and dreaded dreams. The interpretations for each of the many symbols in this book are pretty literal and very straightforward. The book includes true nightmarish accounts from real people, folklore, and a lot of fascinating if not somewhat disturbing imagery. I have been interpreting my dreams--as well as other people's--for years. Throughout these years I have acquired quite a few books on dream interpretation, but always wondered why there weren't many--if any--books on deciphering the meanings of our "darkest dreams". I feel very fortunate to have finally found this book. It makes for a great reference book and a source of very interesting historical information. I highly recommend it to anyone with an interest in dream interpretation or perhaps..the darker side of things. Nightie night!
