Dream Psychology: Psychoanalysis for Beginners Author: Sigmund Freud "In what we may term "prescientific days" people were in no uncertainty about the interpretation of dreams. When they were recalled after awakening they were regarded as either the friendly or hostile manifestation of some higher powers, demoniacal and Divine." In Dream Psychology Freud makes the case that all dreams are wish-fulfillment from the day before and that in analyzing we can get a glimpse into our desires. Dream Psychology was the basis for his latter work and most of the analyzing of dreams for years to come.
