»Dream-sleep« in the human species is concomitant with so-called REM sleep (Rapid Eye Movement) which occurs in almost all mammals. The article reviews the biology of REM sleep in three sections. First, fifteen phenomena which characterizes REM
sleep are described; second, the neurophysiological research concerning REM sleep controlling centres in the brain stem is reviewed, and in the third section, ten modern theories of nature's »meaning« with REM sleep are presented and evaluated. The
theories are divided into three groups concerning REM sleep's postulated importance for 1) the cellular conditions of the central nervous system, 2) the individual's adaptation to its environment, and 3) memory or forgetting.

Ophavsret er tidsskriftets og forfatternes. Det er gældende praksis, at artikler publiceret i Psyke & Logos, som efterfølgende oversættes til andet sprog, af forfatteren frit kan publiceres i internationale tidsskrifter, dog således at det ved reference fremgår, at den oversatte artikel har et forlæg i en dansksproget version i Psyke & Logos. Artikler kan frit deles og linkes til på forsknings- og undervisningsnetværk (så som Blackboard). Link foretrækkes, fordi det giver oplysning om brug af tidsskriftets artikler.
