Abstract:
|
Freud placed dreams at center stage of our psychic lives, relegating fantasy to a minor role, and even claiming that happy people do not fantasize. In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Person challenges this view, arguing that, far from being only a "substitute gratification", fantasy is central to our lives and essential to our well-being.
