The author explains why we dream and describes his research on dream mechanisms and consciousness. He sets out his theories and experiments, including his characterization of paradoxical sleep as a third state of brain functioning, and suggests that the chaos of dreams could serve to restore and maintain our individuality.

It is a work aimed at readers interested in the neuroscience of sleep and in Michel Jouvet's pioneering research.
