Gestalt Therapy Integrated: Contours of Theory & Practice

This is a good foundational book for any student of Humanistic Psychology. It allowed me to understand some of the base tenants of Humanistic Psychology, and more specifically Gestalt Therapy. If you just have a general interest in Gestalt, this is not the book for you - you're better of with a more updated version of what's available. This is a book for scholars and Gestalt Therapy nerds.

I was fortunate to study with Erv and Miriam Polster in the late 1970's. This book I recently reread and it sure stands the test of time. Little did I know when I studied with the Posters how influential they would be in the development of Gestalt therapy. This book is extremely helpful and destroys the myths often perpetrated about Gestalt therapy!I had forgotten just how good this book is!Charlotte Mabry, Ed.D.

Book was very used with lots of marks.

Everyone who plans to study psychology or are in any medical care profession should learn the information in this book so that they can understand and communicate with clients & patients in more understanding ways. Invaluable for lawyers, law-enforcement professionals, etc. 7/3/15; 3:03 AM in New Orleans

This book is very straightforward.Written so those of us learning this field can understand and appreciate the concept and application of Gestalt Therapy.

Ok book .

I am enjoying this book, it's a good and easy read, with many examples and explorations to help integrate Gestalt theory.

This book really has what it offers: this is an integrated view of gestalt therapy, but not only that it gives a clear and very well explanation about the main concepts of Gestalt theraphy, I really recomend it.

For anyone interested in gestalt therapy and the development of modern psychotherapeutic theory, principles, method and process, this is a wonderful read. Dense in information, ideas and exhilarating conceptual content, it is also easy to read, engaging and often very funny.I wholeheartedly recommend this book for both students and practitioners.

Just started it , vote still ,out very intense and I would say a very different , expressive language , bit difficult to follow , bought three books on this therapy , small book but feels jam packed with information

The best, most informative book on Gestalt i have ever read.

Very Good
