"Dreams" by Henri Bergson is a study that inspects what dreams are like, and what they mean philosophically. It was written at the start of the 1900's. It looks closely at how dreams, sensing things, and memory connect together. The book suggests that when we dream, it shows what's going on inside our heads, and aren't just strange imaginations. It tries to explain how dreams can show us important things about what we're thinking and how memory works. He explains that our memories and feelings join together to make dreams happen, and they don't just come from nowhere, like random thoughts; but are influenced by our feelings, senses and memories. From this, readers are asked to interpret dreams to better understand the unconscious and improve our understanding of our mental state.
