Reviewed in 1895 by psychologist Edmund Clarke Sanford: "The author's modest purpose 'being only to convey gossiping hints and suggestions to the generality,' a minute examination of his book would be ungracious; but it must be said that, as a book for the generality, it has serious shortcomings. With the main thesis that dreams deserve a more thorough and rational study than they have yet for the most part had, no fault can be found ; the author's criticisms are often just, and some of his suggestions illuminating; but his psychology is antiquated-often more like that of Bunyan's Mansoul than that of the present; and too prominent a place is given to dreams 'which have all the character of prophecy and revelation.'"
