Scope and Contents

Morris states "On Tuesday January 2003, 78 art and design students from York College cut out every word from Sigmund Freud's 736 page book The Interpretation of Dreams (including the index - 339,960 words). As each word was cut from its respective sentence, it was spoken. When cutting from right to left, Sigmund Freud's words were read backwards." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
