text, written by major Gestalt theorists, that will engage those new to Gestalt
therapy. Editors Ansel Woldt and Sarah M. Toman introduce the historical
underpinnings and fundamental concepts of Gestalt therapy and illustrate
applications of those concepts to therapeutic practice. The book is a unique
contribution to the field in that it is the first Gestalt textbook specifically
designed for the academic and training institute settings. Gestalt Therapy
takes both a conceptual and a practical approach to examining classic and
cutting-edge constructs. In each chapter, understanding of concepts proceeds
from content to case applications to experiential exercises. Gestalt Therapy is
designed for graduate students studying mental health, as well as for trainees
at the many Gestalt training institutes around the world.
