Limited or too specific in interpretations - By: , 26 Oct 2004 
According to this book, almost alll the interpretations for different dream symbols are contrary to what you dream about. So if you dream of unhappiness then you can expect happiness. The answers are also very specific & seem to relate most of the time to money, business & success or lack thereof. It almost seems to portray what's important to the authors rather than including many other aspects of life that people find important such as past experiences. Also, it seems to concentrate so much more on portraying future events that you may well not have any control over such as inheritance, rather than looking within yourself to find out more about yourself & your subconscious. In my current situation & dreams, I find this book misses the point as opposed to other books based on psychology. These authors are not psychologists, one is a psychic interested in ghosts & the other a journalist interested in dreams.
Essential bedside book - By: D. S., 17 Jun 2002 
This is a great little book. There are loads of enteries & more often than not I have been able to look up most aspects of my dreams. There is also a reallly good chapter on interpretation & how to apply different aspects of your dream, such as what is important, what's not so important & what should be ignored & how to unite the different parts of your interpretations to form a bigger picture. there is also some very good use of cross-referencing to help you find more accurate definitions & to explore the dream further.
Also, one of the reviews I read said it was written in American english. It isn't, it's written in British english but you just need to make sure you look up the absolute correct names for some items (i.e. automobile instead of car; stockings instead of socks) but these are often cross-referenced to the correct entry anyway. And the spellings are definitely British!
If I had to find a fault it would be that there could be more definitions but saying that, there are loads in there as it is. I'd definitely recommend this.
Oh, yeah, & I reallly like the cover too :o)
An excellent insight into the world of dreams - By: , 14 May 2002 This is the perfect book for anyone interseted in the interpretation of dreams.
After only owning the book a few days I found myself looking up there hidden meanings & was instantly impressed. Since byeing this book parts of my life have begun to make just a little bit more sence.
The book is clear & easy to understand & gives thousands of insights into different dream symbols & meanings.
A must for your bedside table - By: , 05 Oct 2001 This is the best dream dictionary around! Be warned that it uses American language, so look for alternative words, eg automobile for car, diaper for nappy. Cross referencing within the dictionary makes this easy.
It is spookily accurate, not just for me but for friends, family & colleagues. I have had my copy for over 10 years & would be lost without it, not a week goes by without me looking up a dream.
A worthwhile investment, everyone should have a copy on their bedside table!
Great Book! - By: , 19 Sep 2000 I have had a copy of this book since 1975! It has travelled the world with me, & the pages are fallling out, pages are dog earred, pages torn & taped together. It has excellent & accurate interpretations. I have been searching for a copy to replace the one I have, but I am reluctant to do so! I recommend this book to everyone who is interested in interpretting their dreams.
