There's a reason it's been around unedited for 26 years
Having closely examined literally dozens of dream books from the name-du-jour to Carl Jung, since I first acquired a dog-eared copy The Dreamer's Dictionary 19 years ago, I must conclude that people dream differently. But for me, whether a symbol is dreamed, or wanders across the floor at some revealing moment, I trust the Dreamer's Dictionary to illuminate the meaning. In my life quest I have established many useful methods -- and one of those is to use my manually scanned & OCR'd copy of T.D.D. to do quick searches. It's very revealing. I can say this, about my supposition on dreamers: even when I examine the dreams of OTHERS I have found this book accurate and helpful about 85% of the time -- and that it is a big improvement over the others I have tried.

Crock of sh*t .... ZERO stars!!!
This book is such bull. They have taken certain symbols and labeled them as if everyones dreams mean the same thing. My biggest peeve about this book, would be that it labels the appearance of wolves as a bad thing. Excuse me, but not all people fear wolves and see them as signs of 'the devil' or some crap like that. They fail to take into account the fact that different symbols may mean different things for different people. Instead of this book, I recommend "The Complete Dreambook" by Gillian Holloway, Ph.D.
Much better quality and diversity.

Dreams and Teens
I was a bit disappointed at the quality of paper used in this small paperback. It was a requested present from a teen who already had access to extensive ( and too scholarly rumminations by among others C.Jung ). The size and depth however was about right for the reciever /but there were no exclamations of excitement. I might have returned it and searched other venues had time permitted.
