The Pocket Dictionary of Dreams and the Unconscious: Essential Psychoanalytic Concepts for Understanding Dreams, Symbols and Psychic Life

Its 242 alphabetized entries move from Freud's manifest and latent content, wish fulfillment, condensation, displacement, censorship, representability, and secondary elaboration to Jungian compensation and amplification, Kleinian phantasy and internal objects, Winnicottian play, Bionian alpha function, Lacanian language and desire, trauma dreams, recurrent nightmares, lucid dreaming, memory, REM and NREM sleep, dream recall, and contemporary research.

Every entry includes a definition, cross-school context, three internal cross-references, and a critical clinical note. The book distinguishes experience from report, symbolic truth from historical proof, association from suggestion, and psychological meaning from diagnosis. It is Volume 10 of The Pocket Psychoanalysis Library from ABRAFP International Press.
