The Dimensions of Dreams

In what has been called the best general introduction to this fascinating subject (Die Welt, Hamburg), The Dimensions of Dreams summarizes in one encyclopedic volume the vast knowledge modern science has been able to amass about the world of dreams since Freud first published his groundbreaking Interpretation of Dreams in 1900. Freud's work, and that of Jung, provided the major impetus for many of the dream theories that have arisen this century, all trying to tease meaning from the often puzzling contents of dreams and to enlist them in the therapeutic process. Ole Vedfelt reviews in depth the large body of research about dreams that has found its way into the literature, from the work of Freud and Jung to that of many other important investigators, including Alfred Adler, Erich Fromm, Montague Ullmann, Calvin Hall, and Medard Boss. Vedfelt also discusses dreamwork in gestalt therapy and psychodrama, and describes the results of modern laboratory investigations of sleep and dreaming. Among the other subjects covered are dreams and psychosis, parapsychological phenomena, and how dreams are affected by organic diseases and physical symptoms. The Dimensions of Dreams is a unique and indispensable handbook for the professional, and compelling reading for the general public.

Den stora sammankomsten

Knut heter en ung man som kommit med i ett hemligt sällskap med säte i Paris. Dess medlemmar har som igenkänningstecken att säga något om vädret till varandra. De bedriver en förströdd, men givande verksamhet och kan dyka upp när man minst anar det. Kontakten med sällskapet livar upp Knuts en smula håglösa tillvaro i Göteborg. På allvar tar livet fart när han hamnar på en liten dansk ö i Kattegatt, hemvist för andra och mer suspekta organisationer och aktiviteter, från äkta loppcirkus till falsk yoga. Och vad är kontentan av detta? Kanske att det som syntes ske, skedde inte, och under tiden gick ett annat mönster lugnt i fullbordan.
