It is always a great pleasure to read a book that takes you to a place you may have visited before, but brings that place to life in such a way that not only revives your best memories of it, but leaves you understanding it in a way you never have before. Conversations at the Frontier of Dreaming is such a book. The “place,” the frontier of dreaming, is the intrapsychic border between the unconscious and the preconscious, where raw experience and feeling seek a means of expression so as to be in communication with the conscious mind of the subject as well as with others. In Ogden's words, it is “the ‘place’ where dreaming and reverie experience occur; where playing and creativity of every sort are born” (p. 7).
