G William Domhoff presents a new neurocognitive theory of dreams in his book The Emergence of Dreaming His theory stresses the similarities between dreaming and drifting waking thought based on laboratory and nonlaboratory studies that show as many as 70 to 80 percent of dreams are dramatized enactments of significant waking personal concerns about the past present and future Domhoff discusses a developmental dimension of dreaming based on the unexpected laboratory discovery that young children dream infrequently and with less complexity until ages 911supported by new findings with children who are awake that demonstrate the gradual emergence of cognitive skills necessary for dreaming Domhoffs theory locates the neural substrate for dreaming in the same brain network now known to be most active during mindwandering and explains the transition into dreaming Various strands of evidence lead to the conclusion that dreaming does not have any adaptive function and is best viewed as an accidental byproduct of adaptive waking cognitive abilities However crosscultural and historical studies reveal that human inventiveness has made dreams an essential part of healing and religious ceremonies in many societies Three chapters present detailed critiques of other current theories of dreams The final chapter suggests how new and better studies of dreaming and its neurocognitive basis can be carried out using recent technological developments in both communications eg smartphone apps and neuroimaging eg near infrared spectroscopy As one of the first empirical and scientific treatments on dream research The Emergence of Dreaming will be of interest to psychologists cognitive neuroscientists sleep researchers and psychiatrists

Two problems continually arise in the sciences and humanities according to Mario Bunge parts and wholes and the origin of novelty In Emergence and Convergence he works to address these problems as well as that of systems and their emergent properties as exemplified by the synthesis of molecules the creation of ideas and social inventionsAlong the way Bunge examines further topical problems such as the search for the mechanisms underlying observable facts the limitations of both individualism and holism the reach of reduction the abuses of Darwinism the rational choicehermeneutics feud the modularity of the brain vs the unity of the mind the cluster of concepts around maybe the uselessness of manyworlds metaphysics and semantics the hazards posed by Bayesianism the nature of partial truth the obstacles to correct medical diagnosis and the formal conditions for the emergence of a crossdisciplineBunge is not interested in idle fantasies but about many of the problems that occur in any discipline that studies reality or ways to control it His work is about the merger of initially independent lines of inquiry such as developmental evolutionary biology cognitive neuroscience and socioeconomics Bunge proposes a clear definition of the concept of emergence to replace that of supervenience and clarifies the notions of system real possibility inverse problem interdiscipline and partial truth that occur in all fields
