Book Reviews

Dr. Robert Van de Castle, noted dream expert, says:

Dr. Anne Hill, the author of this very well written and useful 62 page book, does an excellent job of surveying what has been discovered about these bad dreams. Metaphorically speaking, she describes what can be done to smooth out the ruffled sheets they leave behind on the bed, and how we can learn to work with these valuable and important messages so they can serve as springboards to improved self understanding.

And Rev. Jeremy Taylor, author and dream expert, says:

A wonderful collection of gentle, wise, cross-cultural wisdom about nightmares. It belongs on every dreamworker’s “six foot shelf” of useful tools and resources!
