Joe Griffin is a social psychologist with graduate and post-graduate degrees from the LSE. His extensive research has increased our knowledge and understanding and has brought us the first comprehensive, scientifically consistent theory of why we evolved to dream. This proved of great practical benefit for alleviating and understanding mental and emotional distress. Ivan Tyrrell has equally rich experience and knowledge in the field of psychotherapy and psychology. Together they have written numerous best-selling books, including: Dreaming Reality, How to lift depression ... fast, Freedom from addiction and others in the Essential Help in Troubled Times series, which were also well received and prove continuous best-sellers.
