The history of cars in Torino has developed along two lines. The region has been mass-producing cars for a century, yet has never stopped fuelling hotbeds of creativty, craftmanship and technology expressed in one-off vehicles, prototypes and dream cars.

Uriah and Claire know their fight to be with each other is far from over, but the final battle they must face is one they never expected. Claire never thought she would be the one saving anybody’s life. She never thought she would discover a secret destiny, either. Finding Uriah is Claire’s top priority because, without her, he will never be able to defeat the Matwau. To find him, she needs help from the one person she trusts least. Quaile. Claire needs the book Quaile has kept hidden from the rest of the tribe. Claire desperately hopes it will hold the answers she needs to save Uriah’s life. The book does hold answers, but not to everything. Lost memories, acceptance of destiny, and looking outside of reality provide a pathway to the answers they need most, but they also hold the power to break them both. The prices asked of them may finally be too high. If they are, their deaths will only be the beginning.

In the late nineteenth century, dreams became the subject of scientific study for the first time, after thousands of years of being considered a primarily spiritual phenomenon. Before Freud and the rise of psychoanalytic interpretation as the dominant mode of studying dreams, an international group of physicians, physiologists, and psychiatrists pioneered scientific models of dreaming. Collecting data from interviews, structured observation, surveys, and their own dream diaries, these scholars produced a large body of early research on the sleeping brain in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This book uncovers an array of case studies from this overlooked period of dream scholarship. With contributors working across the disciplines of psychology, history, literature, and cultural studies, it highlights continuities and ruptures in the history of scientific inquiry into dreams.
