Review of O. Flanagan, Dreaming Souls [Book Review]

Abstract

What are dreams for? Why do we spend part of every night experiencing crazy stories, which we remember only dimly upon awakening? Where do these stories come from, and what do they mean? Most traditional answers assume dreams are really stories, in the sense that they have a meaning and are told for a reason.
