They are also surrealistic in that they don’t seem to be governed by the laws of logic or make any narrative sense. Many dreams evoke powerful emotions regardless of their apparent incoherence.

By Leslie Alan HorvitzWe spend about a third of our lives sleeping. But do we know why we do it? Is it for biological, psychological, or evolutionary reasons? Much research has based its findings on what happens when we don’t sleep enough. The effects of sleeplessness aren’t difficult to pinpoint.
