Summary: An excellent guide for beginning dreamwork
Review: From Joan Mazza, author of DREAMING YOUR REAL SELF: A PERSONAL APPROACH TO DREAM INTERPRETATION; DREAM BACK YOUR LIFE; FROM DREAMS TO SELF-DISCOVERY, and WHO'S CRAZY, ANYWAY?Jeremy Taylor's work helped to shape and influence my style and understanding as a dreamworker. This is one of the finest and most inspirational books on dreaming, sensitively written and without dogma. His description of doing dreamwork with prisoners was especially moving.

Summary: The method works; book ties together dozens of ideas
Review: Having read the book with care, and having experienced the author live, I can and will testify that, for the group in which I participated, the processs works, and the book fairly represents the process. All dreams that can be remembered ultimately do seem "to come in the service of health and wholeness." Taylor-style Dreamwork combines a form of intimacy with respectful distance, because only by looking deep within "as if it were my dream" can a group member have anything to say about someone else's dream. So, each dream belongs to each member of the group -- in individual versions. This process is illustrated, with huge quantities of theoretical material tantalizingly presented. Quoting Taylor again, "I am a fanatic because I am convinced from 30 years experience. Don't take my word for it. I am the circus barker outside the tent, touting the wonders of 'Jo-Jo the Dog Faced Boy.' Come inside the tent and see for yourself." I agree. The book conveys more of the flavor of the live experience than one would think possible.

Summary: Dynamic, self-empowering book - a great resource
Review: This dynamic book is filled with profound insights into the nature of dreaming, the health and wholeness promoting quality of dreams, and specific techniques for exploring and "unpacking" the MULTIPLE LAYERS OF MEANING & SIGNIFICANCE IN EVERY DREAM - (even the tiny, fugitive "fragmants"!) The book will be of great use and interest to those just beginning to take a deeper interest in their dreams, as well as seasoned, experienced dream workers. Filled with a wealth of fascinating annecdotes and examples, as well as clearly stated findamental principles, the book is a tool of self-empowerment for dreamers - particularly dreamers who are interested in FORMING THEIR OWN ON-GOING DREAM GROUPS.
