Dreams about the Dead Glimpses of Grief

Selected from more than 1,000 interviews, Dreams about the Dead presents edited interviews with individuals who had dreams about dead relatives or friends in an attempt to show the importance of dreams to the grieving process. With extraordinary detail, this book examines the dreams and the impact of various factors-such as the relationship between the dreamer and the deceased, the dreamer's age and gender, and the cause of death-on the bereaved and their grieving process.
