Extremely Basic
This book boasts of how its simple enough for the layman but also great for serious students and even neuroscientists who want to brush up their knowledge. This is a wildly untrue claim. The book is extremely basic, it lacks so much detail its hard to even read as it raises more questions than it answers. If you are looking for a complete raw intro this book is fabulous but, I can’t see any occasion where this should be used academically and I wish I’d saved to buy a textbook instead.

Excellent read!
This book offers amazing insight into what happens when we sleep and dream. This is an excellent book that is a must read for any health enthusiast. The author has the humility to state what is and isn't known about sleeping and dreaming. The author also states that undesirable consequences are more likely to happen for people who have vivid dreams often. I emailed the author questions that I had after reading his book. He was kidn enough to answer them.
