Description
Discover the fascinating science behind our dreams and unlock their transformative power.
Alice Robb explores the latest research into sleep, memory, the concept of self, and human socialization to reveal why we dream and how they impact our waking lives. From processing emotional pain to improving athletic performance, she uncovers the surprising ways in which dreams can shape our experiences.
Robb also delves into the world of lucid dreaming, a state where we gain control over our actions in a dream, and shares her own experiences as one of only ten per cent of people who can achieve this. With groundbreaking insights and real-life examples, Why We Dream offers a fresh perspective on the importance of dreams in our lives.
