From the reviews: "...any treatise on film or television themes is necessarily psychological. This is true of the book Film, Television and the Psychology of the Social Dream by Robert W. Rieber and Robert J. Kelly, and its title appears to emphasize the social psychology of film and television as shared experiences." Lauren S. Seifert PsycCRITIQUES September 8, 2014, Vol. 59, No. 36, Article 6
