Dreaming as CognitionCorrado Cavallero, David Foulkes This book considers dreaming, one of the most pervasive yet poorly understood aspects of human experience, within the framework of concepts and findings that have evolved from the study of waking cognition. It demonstrates the empirical relationship between dreaming and waking cognition, and the possibility of understanding dreaming as a mental process without recourse to either psychoanalytic concepts or neurobiological reductionism. |
