What goes on in the minds of animals when they sleep? \u003ci\u003eWhen Animals Dream\u003c\/i\u003e brings together behavioural and neuroscientific research on animal sleep with philosophical theories of dreaming. It shows that dreams provide an invaluable window into the cognitive and emotional lives of nonhuman animals, giving us access to a seemingly inaccessible realm of animal experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDavid Pea-Guzmn uncovers evidence of animal dreaming throughout the scientific literature, suggesting that many animals run \"reality simulations\" while asleep, with a dream-ego moving through a dynamic and coherent dreamscape. He builds a convincing case for animals as conscious beings and examines the thorny scientific, philosophical, and ethical questions it raises. Once we accept that animals dream, we incur a host of moral obligations and have no choice but to rethink our views about who animals are and the interior lives they lead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA mesmerising journey into the otherworldly domain of nonhuman consciousness, \u003ci\u003eWhen Animals Dream\u003c\/i\u003e carries profound implications for contemporary debates about animal cognition, animal ethics, and animal rights, challenging us to regard animals as beings who matter, and for whom things matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u0026amp;#x27;\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eWhen Animals Dream\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e ranges from fascinating to thrilling.
