Having bought many "Idiot's Guides" of many different sizes, I know how a "Idiot's Guide" is meant to be bound. This book, however, did not appear properly bound - i've only used it a few times and the edges are rougher and more bent that any other "Idiot's Guide" i own. This is my only concern about this book.
This dream dictionary is pretty terrible. Each definition is so generic, I could have written it myself with no prior knowledge on dream symbolism. There are literally a few sentences for each symbol. What are you supposed to get out of that? If you're really interested in dream interpretation, I would recommend buying a book that's a lot more in depth. The same day I bought this book, I also bought "The Inner Eye - A Guide To Self Awareness Through Your Dreams" by Joan Windsor. I haven't finished it yet, but it's extremely interesting and much more helpful than this dictionary.
In general, I think any dream dictionary should be a supporting tool with other, more serious dream interpretation practices.
I love this book! As soon as I have a dream, I grab the book and look it up. It's so interesting! I would recommend it to anyone. It's very easy to read/look up. I'm glad I purchased it.
This is one of many dream dictionaries I have purchased. It helped me to look through the sections Amazon could show before I bought it. I agree when people say that you need to get a dream dictionary where the interpretations make sense TO YOU! This book gives various definitions to each symbol like a dictionary. Unlike my other dream dictionaries all the interpretations were spot on for what was occuring in my life. It was interesting to see how my mind portrayed them while I was sleeping. This newer dictionary gives some modern symbols left out of some of my other dictionaries. Symbols like cell phones and other modern day technological convienences. This was the best for me and I hope it turns out to be the best one for you also.
I have a number of dream books, but this one was okay and very basic. The explanations of dream symbols were very short and did not give you much insight nor the tools needed to analyse your dreams in depth. It is a basic dream book and I would rate it average.
