Blechner argues that the mind and brain should be understood as a single unit - the \"mindbrain\" - which manipulates our raw perceptions of the world and reshapes that world through dreams, thoughts, and artistic creation. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book explores how dreams are key to understanding mental processes, and how working with dreams clinically with individuals and groups provides an essential route towards achieving transformation within the psychoanalytic process. Covering such key topics as knowledge, emotion, metaphor, and memory, this book sets out a radical new agenda for understanding the importance of dreams in human thought and their clinical importance in psychoanalysis. Blechner builds on his previous work and takes it much further, drawing on the latest neuroscientific findings to set out a new way of how the mindbrain constructs reality, while providing guidance on how best to help people understand their dreams.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Mindbrain and Dreams: An Exploration of Dreaming, Thinking, and Artistic Creation \u003c\/i\u003ewill appeal to psychologists, psychoanalysts, philosophers, and cognitive neuroscientists who want new ways to explore how people think and understand the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark J.
