Freud's "The Interpretation of Dreams"

Freud's "The Interpretation of Dreams" argues that dreams are a window into our subconscious mind, revealing hidden desires, fears, and unresolved conflicts. He believes dreams contain symbolic meanings, often representing unconscious wishes or thoughts we’re not aware of during waking life. Freud suggests that understanding these symbols can help us gain insight into our inner selves and resolve psychological struggles. The book introduces key ideas like the unconscious mind, dream symbolism, and the importance of free association in uncovering hidden truths, laying the foundation for psychoanalytic therapy.
