This book comprises the second volume of a comprehensive practitioner’s handbook concerning the use of dreams as a tool for psychoanalysis, written by the influential psychologist Wilhelm Stekel. Dreams have long been thought to provide invaluable insights into the minds of patients and constitute crucial tools for psychoanalysis. This Stekel does not dispute; he does, however, redefine the usefulness of dreams as being important for what a patient’s dreams mean to them personally rather than what their dreams might mean to an impartial practitioner – it is what the patient can tell us about their dreams rather than vice verse. Contained in this fascinating book is a combination of case studies and practical methodology that sets this book apart from other dream-based psychoanalytical text as being a must-read for enthusiasts and practitioners alike. Wilhelm Stekel was an Austrian psychologist and physician famous for being one of Freud's earliest students. This book was originally published in 1943 and is republished here with a prefatory biography of the author.
