REM Illumination, Memory Consolidation by Timothy J. Walter, MD, a neurologist and co-medical director of Capitol Sleep Medicine Sleep Diagnostic Center in Grove City, Ohio, is unique in that it focuses not on what dream symbols may mean, but on how and why we dream. It covers such topics as why REM sleep and dreaming are important to being alert and well functioning during the day, how dreams may help us learn by allowing us to remember more, and why sleep apnea and other sleep disorders that disrupt REM sleep can impair memory.
